2 egg whites= 34 Calories

4 strawberries = 15 Calories

28 Blueberries = 22 calories

1/2 teaspoon of baking powder = 0 calories

To make this I mixed in a bowl the 1/4 cup of buckwheat flour, 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder, two egg whites, 1/2 medium mashed banana, and 1/4 cup of water. I preheated a waffle iron with a couple of quick sprays of extra-virgin olive oil and cooked the waffle for three minutes. I then placed the fresh sliced strawberries and blueberries on top and drizzled with the 2 tablespoons of chocolate PB2 mixed with water.

PB2 is powdered peanut butter with 85% less fat and calories than traditional peanut butter. I buy it on Amazon, a lot of local groceries carry it, I hear Walmart even carries it.

Buckwheat flour is highly nutritious and also is gluten-free.
