For most people, mornings are so rushed that they’re lucky if they can find time to gulp down a Carnation Instant Breakfast shake. But every now and then, life surprises you with the gift of leisure. The following is a recipe for one of those rare mornings:
Waffles are so last year.
French Toast? Who’s that? It’s time to make room for the new kid in breakfast:
Pancake Roll Ups!
Above, Carrot Cake Pancake Roll Ups, filled with raisins and Healthy Cream Cheese Frosting, covered with carrots and more raisins and frosting.
Step One: Cook up your pancakes, a bit thinner than usual. In the photos, I used 24-Carrot Cake Pancakes.
Step Two: Top each pancake with lots of yum-licious ingredients
Step Three: Roll up the pancakes. Side note: I *heart* the cute strawberry plate from Pier One.
Step Four: Put more deliciousness on top!
Step Five: Devour your Pancake Roll Ups before other members in your house see them and beat you to it!
those look so good! on rushed mornings, i usually have a pb & j sandwich…sometimes i’m too rushed and i get pb on my clothes though =)
Larabar’s are great for quick grab n go!
oops, I guess I wrote my answer on the wrong post (I wrote it on today’s)! You and your confusing linkage!
My ideal pancake roll up filling wise…hazelnut hummus! I made it the other day and it was gorgeous 😀
Favourite on the go breakfast – it’s all about the green monsters 😛 packed with cereal, milk, yogurt, banana, spinach….win!
For those rushed mornings, I’ll just grab some dry cereal in a baggie and a banana on-the-go.
My favorite instant breakfast is a banana. Yummy!!
PB&J!
I typically eat a pretty substantial breakfast; egg whites, oats, fruit and milk but in an emergency my go-to instant breakfast is cereal in a ziploc bag and a protein shake (I don’t like the “foamy-ness” of a shake right after its blended so I pre-make a couple at a time and keep in my fridge so they have time to “rest”). Only takes a minute to dump cereal in a baggie and grab the shake and I am out the door
if i want an instant breakfast i usually prepare it the night before, i’ll put frozen bread/frozen muffin/frozen something in the fridge and it’s thawed out by the morning. i usually like to spend time making my breakfasts, maybe it’s the art major in me that enjoys creating (you should see my bowls of cereal…fancy!) rather than having things in a snap 🙂
My favorite instant breakfast is oatmeal. I put it in baggies (usually with fruit or some other topping) so I can add water and heat it up at work. I wouuld love to try the Vega shakes!
