Pancake Trio

Well we ran out of bread again at home and some of our best recipes come from a missing ingredient. Dakota loves her grill cheese and using banana bread from our Banana Bread Trio on page 38-39 from our Second Edition C1P2 Cookbook, just got me thinking of the same solution the last time we made these pancakes. For me it is the lemon zest that makes this my favorite pancake!

• Whole Wheat Pancakes
• Pancake Grilled Cheese
• P & J Pancake Bites

Roasted Beet Trio

You can’t “Beet” this trio of recipes!

Beets are not only beautiful to look at, they are low in calories (contain only 45 kcal/100 g) and fat; but very rich in dietary fiber, vitamins and minerals. Our local farms are exploding with this delicious root veggie and with the best crops between June and October; they have a lengthy season to enjoy. By learning how to roast and clean the beets you are ready to try our Beet Hummus and save the greens for a quick side dish. And relax...the colour from beets always washes out!

• Roasted Beets
• Beet Hummus
• Sautéed Beet Stems

Oatmeal for the Soul

Oats are loaded with a soluble fibre called beta-glucan which has been proven to help lower cholesterol levels.  Their antioxidant properties also help protect the healthy LDL cholesterol from free radicals. In this trio, we create a big batch of hearty oatmeal cookie dough which can be added to buckwheat pancakes or baked as is and made into ice cream sandwiches.

• Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
• Oatmeal Cookie Buckwheat Pancakes
• Oatmeal Cookie Sandwiches
