Mmmmm, Protein Pancakes .......

CarolinaChick Posts: 51 Joined: 2003/01/07	2003/01/13, 02:23 PM This is one of my all time favorites. It may not sound good but if you love pancakes like I do but they just don't quite fit into your diet, this is a great alternative!!! Protein Pancakes 1/2 cup plain uncooked instant oatmeal 5 egg whites (or 3 whites+1 whole) or (2 wholes+1 white) 1 tsp vanilla 2 packs of Splenda and a little cinnamon ~ Mix all this in your blender, cook in pan using Pam~ I like ta mix a lil' cinnamon and splenda and sprinkle on top of the pancakse once they're cooked along w/ some sugar free/fat free, low calorie Log Cabin syrup. Makes about 8 or 9 thin pancakes..... estimated~~ 350Cal. 30g. Protein 30g.Carbs 12g. Fat Please try these, and let me know how ya like'em.

They are more like crepes and they taste great. If you on a gaining diet, put a little cream on these babies and you have got yourself a treat that will make you think you are cheating. -------------- I will lift my own weight someday!!!!!

I've had progress but I want to sharpen my diet for better gains so I am starting to check out the recipes. Stupid beginner question - is this 350cals for the full 'mix' you have listed? 12g fat a lot? Is that too much for someone not trying to 'bulk' or gain? I've gotta try these out!
