Cooking today…

I thought I would start showing on here some of the wonderful things we are cooking in our house. Here is my first post in that regard. Yesterday I was finally able to get plantains at Aldi (only 0.19 a piece!!) so today I asked Max if he wanted pancakes. Well if you know Max, this is sort of like asking a dog if he wants to be petted! Of coarse he wanted pancakes!

Here is the recipe if you want it: http://www.thepaleomom.com/2012/09/perfect-paleo-pancakes.html

As you can see they are made with green plantains that get pureed. Now my food processor is old and sounds like a jet engine and it didn’t get COMPLETELY smooth but it did get close. These are not sweet at ALL. Which is a nice change for me, because honestly most pancakes I find I don’t even need syrup with. They feel like a normal wheat pancake, taste a bit of a banana like taste, but are very tasty!

I hope today and in the days to come to talk more about what we eat. It is such a fun topic for me!
