In the Burkholder house, we have a fast and easy cheat for when we would really love to have a cinnamon roll for breakfast (or dinner for that matter), but wouldn't love to eat all those calories or spend the time baking. Here it is, our Burkholder "Poor Man's Cinnamon Roll":
Toast a slice of bread (we use Kirkland whole wheat 80 calories per slice)
Spread some butter
Sprinkle some cinnamon & sugar
Top with whipped cream cheese frosting (we use Betty Crocker, 2 TBS = 100 calories... & you don't need 2TBS!)
It comes out hot and gooey and satisfies the craving without derailing all your hard work (training) and good behavior (nutrition).
*Tip: if you have a toaster oven use that instead of the toaster, then you get a nice baked goods smell too
