International Pancake Day! 

Today is international Pancake day all around the world , So I celebrated with some low protein mix pancakes. They are so easy. 1 cup mixquick, 2/3 cup water. Topped with Banana , butter and maple syrup.  Totally off my calorie count for the day though. Sometimes you just have to induldge. I still remember the first time  I had mix quick pancakes. I had gotten a sample from the clinic, just one cup, while I was staying in vancouver at my friend Claudias house. Her Dad made them for me. We where so amazed how “real” and “normal” they looked and they tasted just fabulous! Before Mix Quick I only ever had Kingsmill all purpose pancakes. They where thick, white and never turned colour. They looked really odd and where so hard to cook. And you could not make waffles with them in a waffle iron. Mix Quick is one of my favorite products as its so easy to use. I make muffins with it, bananna bread, waffles , pancakes , scones and more. I love adding fruit to my pancakes. keeps it interesting. I have added canned peaches with the liquid. Apples and Cinnamon,  all types of berries, Kiwi, or even bananas. On Christmas my sister in law made me gingerbread pancakes! There is so much you can do with them. Its a great warm winter breakfast. We use to have pancake or waffle days once a week. Now its more once a month.
