    • Top the waffles with a small handful of fresh berries for a burst of flavor and antioxidants.
  5. Serve with Bacon:

Health Benefits:

  • Viking Waffles: High in protein, keeping you full and satisfied longer. They provide a good energy source without added sugars.
  • Fresh Berries: Packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, berries boost immune function and reduce inflammation.
  • Grass-Fed Butter: Contains healthy fats and fat-soluble vitamins, promoting heart health and brain function.
  • Bacon/Turkey Bacon: A good source of protein, essential for muscle repair and maintenance. Turkey bacon offers a lower-fat alternative.

Keto-Friendly Tips:
