You can do all that with a box of pancake mix?!


Ki and I love breakfast, and a couple of weekends ago I thought it would be fun to be able to eat breakfast for EVERY meal.  So on a Saturday and Sunday, we were able to make not merely two breakfasts, but SIX!  It was a lot to handle, and I am not sure if it is the best thing to do all of the time, but at least we have multiple recipes to share with you guys for breakfasts, brunches, or anytime you want breakfast for dinner.

It's National Pancake Day (Tomorrow)!


Tomorrow is the celebration of National Pancake Day, and of course we could not pass up the day!  Here is a wonderfully simple and delicious pancake recipe we made the other weekend - utilizing our favorite, Fiber One Pancake mix.  So if you happen to have these ingredients on hand for the morning, definitely try it out :).

Peanut Butter Jelly Time!


Due to my hectic schedule during the week, I am not able to blog, but believe me we have definitely been eating!  So there is a backlog of meals for me to post, and this one is quickly going to the top even though I literally just finished eating it - because it was just THAT good!

Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwiches have been my favorite for as long as I can remember - I don't even know if I could actually function without them.  It killed me when I studied abroad last year and PB&J's were not staples in other countries - even finding peanut butter is a struggle!  Maybe that says something about our obesity epidemic?  Well, this recipe will definitely not aid in increasing the obesity rate of our country, on the contrary this will help you meet your weight goal, or maintain where you are while indulging yourself in the most delicious Peanut Butter and Jelly creation I have had.  Period.

Be My Valentine?!


Today is St. Valentine's Day.  While neither myself nor Ki are extremely into Valentine's Day, we both do enjoy things pink... and sometimes heart-shaped :).  Since it is the day for pink and heart-shaped things, we figured we would 'indulge' on a marvelously pink breakfast - complete with PINK coffee!  This is a amazingly easy breakfast which you could make any morning, not just on February 14th.

Chocolate Covered Banana English Muffin French Toast




The other morning, I saw a recipe for banana split french toast - which then sparked the creation of this recipe.  We did not use whipped cream or a cherry which made their recipe 'split', so ours was simply chocolate-covered ;).  The use of english muffins in french toast recipes allows a more moist end product, more similar to brioche bread than regular sliced bread would be.  They do not seem to soak up as much coating, but definitely still hold the flavor of the banana which is a delicious addition!

Saturday Morning Cinn-Ful Pancake Stack

I have gone through periods of time in my life where the only breakfast I would eat would be chocolate chip pancakes.  I still thoroughly enjoy all types of pancakes, whether they be chocolate chip, blueberry, pumpkin... good thing I just ate breakfast or I would be HUNGRY from thinking of them all!

Coffee Cake Muffins


Obviously, we started shoveling to try and dig our way out of the house (since school/work will not likely close again tomorrow - but here's to hoping!).  Certain snow drifts were up to the windows, making it quite difficult, as well as quite a lot of work.  We made it a quarter of the way down the driveway (it is fairly long), and were hungry and cold when we back in.  At the grocery store a few weeks back, we got the ingredients to make the following muffins, but never got around to actually baking them up.  Which ended up perfect as it was a great time for a mid-morning hot chocolate break!
