Look, I don’t know - I love my waffle maker and I am always trying to come up with new and fun ways to use it that aren’t just standard waffles. This Breakfast Waffledilla is definitely that. It combines all the best parts of a breakfast quesadilla and stuffs it into waffle form. That’s right, this is full of bacon, egg, and cheese goodness and only takes a few minutes of hands on time.

I added some jalapeños to mine, but some fresh pico would be another good addition. There were really only a few things I could do to this to keep it lightened up, and that mostly involved the tortillas. I went with a low carb whole wheat tortilla that’s only 45 calories for one tortilla. I also went with a low sodium center cut bacon, because no one can ever tell the difference!

Other than that, it’s all about the cheese. Reduced fat cheddar is good, but you could also use a jack cheese or really whatever tickles your fancy. I served mine with fresh berries and some salsa on the side for dipping, but some guacamole would be good here too!

The best part about these Breakfast Waffledillas is that they are customizable for each person. So everyone can get what they want in them - even if it’s this base of bacon, egg and cheese.
