National Pancake Day!!

Wednesday, February 29, 2012

Hello!

Did you know yesterday was National Pancake Day?? I did not until I read Corey's post yesterday. Since pancakes are one of my top 10 favorite foods, I was pretty stoked about the discovery!

Due to the fact that E is in the midst of busy season at work, I have been dining alone quite a bit lately. I miss my wonderful hubby, but I do love being able to eat breakfast for dinner a couple nights a week! Last night's dinner included GF protein pancakes topped with peanut butter and banana.


In honor of National Pancake day, I thought I would follow in Corey's footsteps and share my favorite pancake recipes with you.
