WIAW #2 Continent Pancakes
Hello everyone! Today I’m linking up for What I Ate Wednesday! This will cover about a span of a week and a few things I’ve eaten during that time.
As I sit here working on this blog post I’m eating my protein pancakes that look like I was trying to create pancakes in the shapes of the 7 continents. Or like a mom who is trying to make dinosaur shaped pancakes for her little boys. I don’t know what went wrong in my proportions!
Despite the funky shape they still tasted delicious and filled me up this morning.
Now let’s begin:
On the right: My Mom made some Chocolate Banana Bread with coconut and peanut butter chips. With a layer of peanut butter on top, it was a perfect breakfast choice.
On the left: I made a vanilla iced coffee protein shake. I was pretty impressed with my concoction and hopefully will share on the blog soon once I perfect it.
On the right: We had spaghetti last night for dinner and my Mom made homemade spaghetti sauce.
On the left: I had been dying to have pizza, so we made homemade pizza one night. One pizza had pepperoni and green chile. The other pizza had olives and….a bunch of other vegetables that I did not take any part in.
On the right: Sunday mornings usually mean we put something quick and savory in the oven for breakfast. A popular choice is cinnamon rolls. I haven’t had a cinnamon in awhile so I really enjoyed it. Of course I used the cream cheese frosting, but peanut butter really can go on about anything.
On the left: We have a little baby skillet that can cook eggs just like the one above. It’s the perfect size for making an egg for a biscuit or English muffin.
On the right: We had cauliflower rice for lunch with a stir fry of chicken, broccoli, and peppers. Cauliflower rice is surprisingly good. As long as you don’t think about it not being actual grainy rice, you wouldn’t notice much of a difference.
On the left: Salmon patties with peas and mac & cheese! I’m typically not a huge macaroni person, but every now and then some mac & cheese can make my day.
Here are a few recipes that I am wanting to try out:
PaleOMG|Cinnamon Chocolate Swirl Banana Bread
The Simple Lens| Avocado Brownies
This Gal Cooks| Crockpot Chicken Burrito Bowls
Sprinkle Bakes| Coconut Cappuccino Muffins
PaleOMG| Chocolate Coffee Banana Donuts
That’s a wrap! Have a wonderful Wednesday everyone!!
What is one of your favorite things you’ve eaten lately? Have you ever made odd shaped pancakes?

Mmmmm pancakes and pizza 🙂 my favorites! I’ve been eating a LOT of grilled cheese lately. Everyday for lunch, actually. And then for dinner whatever my parents make. Best part about being home- not having to prepare your own meals!

I could alllways go for mac&cheese! but everything looks really yummy! Pancakes always taste better when they’re a fun shape, right? haha!

The shape of those pancakes is too funny! Aaand now I’m craving mac and cheese. Plus, my friend just informed me that it’s National Cheese Day? That may need to happen!

Hey! Sometimes the most delicious meals look the ugliest.Haha! I love your idea of adding green chili’s onto your pizza. I’m thinking I’ll have to give it a try one of these days. Perhaps I’ll make it more like an enchilada flavored pizza 🙂

[…] I had some issues with the shape not looking like a normal pancake. They weren’t as bad as my continental pancakes, but still they weren’t pretty. This one is alright, but the second one…well […]

[…] On the right: Once again I made some protein pancakes that had came out in weird oblong shapes. At least they had more of a circular form to them than my continent pancakes. […]
