Healthy Savory Pancakes

These vegetable packed pancakes started out as an experiment, but they actually turned out AMAZING – almost like fluffy veggie burgers!  Savory and full of flavor, try these quick and easy pancakes when you feel like something out of the ordinary.  With a little blender action and a flip on the griddle, you’ve got a balanced meal!  Creativity in the kitchen certainly paid off in making this healthy and delicious recipe, and here is a breakdown of the goodness inside each pancake…

Whole wheat flour – a much more nutritious choice than all purpose flour because every part of the wheat kernel is left in

Cottage cheese and eggs – create a delightful consistency while providing a significant source of protein and other beneficial nutrients.

Spinach – enhances color (yes, they do turn green!) as well as vitamin and nutrient density.

Peppers, peas, and onions – veggies, need I say more?

Cumin, paprika, basil, and ginger – hello delicious spice combo!

Bottom line – both your body and your taste buds will thank you for making this recipe… simple as that!
