Did you know that there was a National Pancake Day? A whole day to honor the sweet, light, and fluffy breakfast delight, YUM! I decided to take part in this celebration, and went to Crest Foods to stock up on ingredients. Now if you want to get fancy there are hundreds of recipes available to make "made from scratch" pancakes, but if you are like me and have limited time then you can opt for one of the many brands of pancake mix that Crest Foods has to offer. There are now even healthy options for pancake mixes. You may choose from whole wheat, whole grain, and mixes with milled flax seed and soy. I chose the Hungry Jack Original mix, and garnished with strawberries, blueberries, and whipped cream.
When making pancakes, you can stick to the general round disk format, or you may want to experiment with a fun character shape, or with mini silver dollars. The great thing about trying out these fun shapes is that if you mess up, they still taste delicious. I will be serving my family their pancakes with syrup, fruit, low-fat turkey bacon, and a glass of milk. I am looking forward to seeing the smiles on their faces.
So what better way is there to start your Monday morning, than to begin with a Celebration! I hope everyone has a great week, and a Happy Pancake Day!!!!
