Adding cottage cheese to pancakes gives extra protein, but it also adds a light, delicate texture. I combined the sweet, hearty flavor of blackberries with the tart taste of lemon for a delectable, gourmet and healthy pancake. As always, my pancakes are from scratch, made with just a few simple ingredients. My kids and husband loved these Blackberry…

That’s why I love this Breakfast Sundae….it couldn’t be easier and it is the perfect combo of healthy and delicious….oh, and it’s fun!! I love adding cottage cheese to our meals because of its…
Snowflake Pancakes
Happy Snow Day!!! Colorado got over a foot of snow and school is cancelled! This calls for hot cocoa and Snowflake Pancakes!! I tend to get a little “themey” with my pancakes…candy canes during the holidays, red hot pancakes for Valentines Day, pumpkin in the fall, jack o’ lanterns on Halloween, and zoo animals when…
Jack O’ Lantern Pancakes
These pumpkin pancakes are a favorite tradition at our house. We have them every Halloween morning! The kids cut up fruit leather and we either bake it into the pancake or they decorate their pancake with a face after they’re cooked. Either way it makes our Halloween breakfast fun and festive! And so tasty too! …

Breakfast for dinner tonight!
Huevos Rancheros is a popular weekend breakfast for us but dinner sometimes as well. Eric likes his smothered in green chile and the rest of us leave off the heat. It is super easy and quick to make. These are ingredients we always have on hand, which helps on a busy weekday night. Refried beans,…
Breakfast Burritos
I’ve been making these Breakfast burritos for many years. They are a weekend favorite and loved by all. Smother with green chili or do without, either way they hit the spot! The savory flavors of sausage and Potatoes O’Brien mix with scrambled eggs, cheese and green chile for a flavorful start to your day. We…
Hammy Eggs
Do you have leftover Easter ham that needs to get used up? Try Hammy Eggs! I have always loved “Popeye Eggs,” which my college roommate used to make for us…which is a piece of bread with a hole in it, where an egg gets fried in the center, baking itself into the bread. Thanks Tracy!!…
Night Before Cinnamon Rolls
Cinnamon rolls are very close to the top of my all-time favorite foods list. (Strawberries and pure maple syrup top the list as well!) I’ve been searching to find the very best cinnamon roll, pretty much my whole life. I love the ooey -gooey ones, that are buttery and soft all the way through. Well,…
Easter Bunny Pancakes
My kids just love it when we get festive with their pancakes. We tend to turn our activity for the day into a whole theme. If we’re going to the zoo we start the day with giraffe and zebra pancakes. 🙂 If it’s close to Easter we make Easter bunnies! I use my favorite Banana…
