4 Mar

Today is Fat Tuesday and National Pancake Day!

Sadly, I’m not in New Orleans right now so I have to hold on to the awesome memories I made last year with Chandra…

Luckily, I’m carb-loading this week for the LA Marathon, so this is kinda my favorite day!!

fat tuesday and pancake day

I have a lot of healthy pancake recipes so let’s take this opportunity to have breakfast for dinner – or, Brinner as it can be called with one of these.

National Pancake Day Recipes:

Cinnamon Raisin Protein Pancakes

Sweet Potato Pancakes

Oatbran Cakes

Strawberry Shortcake Protein Pancakes

Enjoy!

you will have pancakes

Question: When was the last time you had pancakes?

If it’s been longer than 24 hours, it’s been too long.

    Oh I devoured a plate for breakfast yesterday and then toyed with the idea of also cooking them for tea…you can do that on pancake day right?…Twice in one day…that’s acceptable?!

    Yum! I LOVE pancakes, any day of the week, any time of the day….and I was devastated I did not get to celebrate pancake day yesterday. In England it is a HUGE deal, EVERYONE has pancakes for dinner, and it is one of the things I miss the most about home. I have vowed this is the last pancake day I will miss! You have given us lots of amazing new recipes….as if my list of breakfast ideas on pinterest wasn’t already long enough 😛

    I’m trying to find a gluten free pancake that doesn’t taste like ass. For those times when I throw caution to the wind, I love pancakes (and my pregnant stomach when I’m done with them). Does watching my friend eat carrot cake pancakes on Saturday count? I’ll say yes.

      Have you tried the ready-made mix? I think those are okay (even Bisquick makes one).

    I had my daily dose of pancakes for breakfast this morning. The boyfriend dragged me out of bed to get IHOP’s free pancakes. While I prefer homemade pancakes, nothing can beat a fun morning and a free date!

    I’m making your cinnamon raisin pancakes tonight! The last time I had pancakes was on Friday- so way too long ago.

    I made some very awesome Tie fighter and x wing fighter pancakes with my star wars molds this morning. I wish I could say it was in honor of pancake day but it’s kind of my normal…..and no, I am not a twelve year old boy.
