Blueberry Oatmeal Pancakes with a Twist

I tried this recipe the other morning for breakfast and found it to be a bit bland as is so I added 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and vanilla extract. Of course you could substitute any extract of desired.

Tips:

• Add fresh blueberries to the mix. Frozen blueberries have preservatives in them are not of good quality to make pancakes.
• If you do not like blueberries, substitute preferred fruit of choice

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons baking powder
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 cups quick cooking oats
• 2 cups soy milk
• 3 eggs, beaten
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1/2 cup frozen blueberries

Directions

1. Preheat a lightly oiled griddle over medium heat.
2. In a large bowl, mix whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a small bowl, mix oats and soy milk. Whisk in eggs and olive oil. Pour into the flour mixture all at once. Continue mixing until smooth. Gently fold in blueberries.
4. Pour batter about 1/4 cup at a time onto the prepared griddle. Cook 1 to 2 minutes, until bubbly. Flip, and continue cooking until lightly browned.

New Year, New You

It's the first month of a new year after the holidays.

      As you get ready to head back to school and work, you tell yourself you want to start off the year by eating healthy and hitting the gym but you're afraid eating healthier will cause you to sacrifice your taste buds.

Not at all!

     Eating healthy does not mean giving up the foods you love; it means making adjustments to your diet.      

     Replace a soda with a natural fruit drink or smoothie.

Instead of a burger, have a grilled chicken sandwich with wheat bread and skip the condiments. They add unnecessary calories.

     Have a salad with vinaigrette instead of fries. 

You will see that changing a few things at meals will cause you to feel healthier while also looking healthier.

Stay tuned for healthy and tasty recipes.
