Healthy Pancakes!

Eric and I both got home late last night around 8:00 pm, so I didn’t cook. It was a fend for yourself kind of night. 

Murray and Chopper were chomping at the bit to get up this morning, so at 6:45am I finally rolled out of bed. Am I the only one that gets annoyed when you get up because you think your dogs has to go outside and then you open the door, and they just turn around and stare at you? I swear I love them, but I needed sleep this morning. I quickly made me a cup of coffee and decided to cook Eric and me breakfast.

I feel ya, Chopper!
Sorry, didn't make my bed!

Eric didn’t go into work until 11:00 am this morning, so we actually sat down and had breakfast together. I wanted to share with you these healthy pancakes I found. While they aren’t made from scratch, these Power Cakes Flapjack and Waffle Mix (Kodiak Cakes) were amazing. I am not sure where I originally heard about these, but I was so afraid they were not going to be good and taste like plain flour. These pancakes are made with Whole Grains and have 18 grams of PROTEIN in them (when you make them with Skim Milk). You can get these at Costco or Walmart. I have not found them at Publix or Target (my usual stomping grounds). I will be cooking these more often since Eric really enjoyed them. When I first told Eric about these he had his eyebrows up. Thankful I have a husband that will try anything! I paired our pancakes with reduced fat bacon, organic cage free brown eggs, and fresh strawberries! It was simple and so tasty! There is no recipe today, but I just wanted to share with you my healthy, yummy find.

Can be found at Walmart and Costco

Before I left for work today, I was able to throw a pot roast into the crock pot. I’m looking forward to being home at 6:30 pm this evening and dinner being done. I will share with you this recipe tomorrow. Growing up, it was one of my favorite meals! 

Happy Eating!
