valentine chocolate strawberry waffels

I was shopping with my little one for a school party she is having the other day at Foodlion. As we were pushing the cart around getting stuff she was dancing in front of me and she said stop mommy we have to make this. I said what?? I want pancakes with Nutella and berries.
But that's not what I had in mind. First she has been whining for a couple of days for strawberries and they were on sale 2 for $5. Second instead of pancakes I decided that waffels would be much easier to clean up. Finally I opted for the cheaper store brand hazelnut chocolate spread in place of the Nutella.
This morning I got out the waffle maker from the deep dark corner of my cabinet. I pulled out some pure, unrefined, cold pressed 100% organic coconut oil because let's face it that's were all the benefits of getting coconut oils are! I used the coconut oil to coat the waffels maker and used a box of instant waffels mix with some vegetable oil (I'm not perfect!!) and made a batch of waffels. I am sure you can use your favorite waffels recipe and it will come out great! I took the waffels I made threw them into the toasted to get them crunchy slapped some of that delicious chocolate spread on them with some yummy strawberries, stacked them up and loaded them with whip cream! let's face it if your gonna treat yourself why not do it for breakfast and have all day to work off some of those extra calories?? anyways hope you enjoy and have an amazing day!!
