Snickerdoodle Pancakes

(that I have made for breakfast every single morning this week)
Serves 1
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1T plus 1 tsp sugar 
  • 1/2 cup plus 2T almond or soy milk (or more, for thinner pancakes)
  • 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • tiny bit over 1/16 tsp salt (don’t omit)
  • Cook on frying pan lightly sprayed with non-stick spray, turning once. Optional: if you don’t like the texture of fat-free pancakes (dense and cakey) you can add 1T canola oil

Kale Chips

I got this recipe from a marathon runner magazine -- can't remember the name, but I snapped an original camera phone pic of the recipe itself
Ta-da!
  • Kale is super good for you - it's rich in vitamins A, B-6, C, & K, iron, beta-carotene, lutein, calcium, and iron
  • Kale is also super cheap... my grocery store sells it for $.99/pound, and a giant bundle of it only cost me $.80
  • Kale chips definitely satisfied my craving for light and crispy and salty -- much healthier than potato chips
Side note: I used zatar instead of salt, and it was splendid! I lined the pan with tinfoil which was a good idea considering the oil involved. Also, keep in mind kale shrinks significantly in size when cooked.
