Yesterday was a terrible food day.  But all the cookies are gone now 🙂

This morning I made a new protein pumpkin pancake recipe that went over great with all the kids.

I made them in the blender and it was thick for my old vitamix, but it worked. Add all the ingredients in the order listed blending well after each one. Then fry on a griddle turned down a little. Between 300 and 325 degrees.

1 cup lowfat cottage cheese
6 eggs
1 cup pumpkin puree
2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
2 tsp baking soda
2 Tbs honey or real maple syrup
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup brown rice (dry)

This made 21 pancakes and I had 3 with about 2 Tbs of light syrup. I’ll figure out the calories in a bit 🙂

First snack was a dairy free taco salad with hummus instead of ranch.

Lunch and Snack (I just nibbled in the sewing studio while frantically sewing costumes): A huge protein bar and 2 oz of sun chips.

Dinner: 1 oz Almonds, 1 string cheese and 1 Apple. (Hoping for something better after our evening soccer games are done. I ran home just to unload the sewing stuff before coming here to the fields.)
