Fluffy Pancakes. This pancake recipe is the result of mixing and matching different recipes from many different sources.

Fluffy Pancakes

It is the result of trying and failing so many times, that I almost declared pancakes as the one breakfast recipe I couldn’t master. But I persisted, and this recipe is perfect – as perfect as a pancakes recipe can be, because making pancakes does involve frying, and frying is something that each of us needs to play with. It changes depending on your type of stove (gas or electric), on how hot the skillet is, and on how evenly hot you manage to keep it while frying multiple batches.

But the instructions here are as close as it gets to “perfect,” and the result? Truly fluffy, puffy pancakes that are never heavy or dense and that are flavored with a pleasant vanilla aroma and taste. This recipe makes 16-18 pancakes. Fluffy Pancakes Makes 16-18 pancakes.

Healthy Baked Chicken Nuggets

An easy chicken recipe your whole family will love. What can be more kid friendly than chicken nuggets, even the pickiest kids like them. Serve them with ketchup, bbq sauce or whatever you like to dip your nuggets into. Adults can serve them over your favorite salad for a satisfying lunch. Kids love finger foods or anything you can eat with toothpicks so when my daughter was young I would make her a dish of bite sized goodies she liked such as tomatoes, olives, pasta, etc. and served them with toothpicks and she always cleaned her plate! Once I'm in breading mode I usually make breaded zucchini sticks as well and bake them all at the same time along with some pasta and a salad for a complete meal. Double these for more or make half for less servings.

Ingredients: Preheat oven to 425°. Put the olive oil in one bowl and the breadcrumbs, panko and parmesan cheese in another. Cinnamon Sugar Apple Pie Eggrolls. Is anyone else still holding on to apple season for dear life?

Cinnamon Sugar Apple Pie Eggrolls

I mean really, apples tend to be more of a fall thing but I just can’t get enough of them right now. And when I say that I think it’s fair to disclose that I can’t get enough cinnamon and sugar either. The thing that I’ve also become recently super obsessed with is eggroll wrappers. Those suckers work great for everything and automatically make it suuuuuuuuuuuper fancy. Ham & cheese sandwich? Or in my case, apple pie?

Just one! (It’s a great one, though.) For comparison, there are 11 recipes that use cauliflower and 26 with mushrooms. What terrible oversight could have led to this? I buy broccoli (and its friends) approximately once a week, year-round but this wasn’t always the case.
