A Quick Way to Make the Kids Breakfast FUN!
When I was a kid, a special treat for my sister and I was when mom would make chocolate chip pancakes on a Saturday morning. I remember how special that little bit of chocolate would make the pancakes, and how excited we would get. These days with my daughter, I try to keep her excited to eat and try new things. A new idea I tried out this weekend was using Eggo Waffles in the shape of that well-known Disney mouse: Minnie. The Eggo Waffles were super quick to prepare and perfect for her to pick up and hold herself. No pancake batter or mess to deal with makes a happy mom and a fun kids breakfast.
Mickey is a super easy shape to make using both Eggo Homestyle Mini Waffles and Eggo Homestyle Waffles: two Mini Waffles for the ears, and one Homestyle Waffle for the head. I decided to make a Minnie Mouse for my daughter, since she and her cousin love Minnie! The bow had me stumped for a little while until I remembered how much she loves to dip things in yogurt. I would make the bow from yogurt, and she could dip her waffles in it! As an added bonus, I could avoid using butter or syrup, which makes for a healthier kids breakfast, too! Here’s how I made my Minnie Mouse-inspired Eggo Waffle treat…
A Quick Minnie Mouse Kids Breakfast with Eggo Waffles

Sophia was so excited when she saw her plate, she was bouncing in her seat! The yogurt dip was a big hit with her, too.
