Banana Pancakes

- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 2 tsp. baking powder
- 1/4 tsp. salt
-1/4 tsp. cinnamon
- 1 large banana, very ripe, mashed
- 1 cup skim milk
- 3 large egg whites
- 2 tsp. olive oili
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- olive oil or non stick cooking spray


Mix all dry ingredients in a bowl. Combine milk, egg whites, oil and mashed banana in a bowl and mix until smooth. Combine wet ingredients with the dry and mix well with a spoon until there are no more dry spots. Don't over mix.

Heat a large skillet on medium heat. Spray cooking spray to lightly coat and pour 1/4 cup of the pancake batter. When the pancakes start to bubble flip the pancakes. Repeat with the remainder of the batter. You can add chopped walnuts if you want some extra protein.

I like these pancakes. They are easy to make in batches and reheat fine too. I think they would also freeze well.

Easy Marinated Chicken

Rub raw chicken breasts with pepper and garlic salt.
Marinate chicken in 1/3 cup canned pineapple chunks (with juice) and 1/2 tbsp. soy sauce per breast in an airtight container for 10 minutes or more.
Pour chicken and marinade in a baking dish sprayed with cooking spray.
Bake 20 - 30 minutes at 350 until fully cooked.

It is great over brown rice and served with steamed broccoli.

I would have never thought of that combo! I'll have to try it! This may sound stupid... what is coconut meat? Is it the actual white fleshy part? Sounds delish!

jahenry17

Coconut meat is the white part, but I don't add that. No need for more calories :-)

Chickpea Snack

Drain and rinse one can of chickpeas
Toss chickpeas in some olive oil and cayenne
Bake at 450 for 30 minutes

This was in my food Network magazine. I tried it today and thought it turned out good as an easy high protein snack. I imagine you could change it up just fine by trying different spices.

I went to a cooking class and they did these but with cinnamon and a bit of sugar. I like to roast for longer because I like them crispier. I hope it's OK i'm posting here. I'm not on Team Bob but Team Jilian doesn't have any challenges or posts so I thought I'd look at the other teams for some tips and motivation

Thanks! I wasn't sure. I think I will try it without the coconut meat for at least the first time. Something tells me that my daughter is going to love this recipe!

Open one can of Progresson Lite Creamy Potato with Cheese and Bacon Soup

Eat it.

It's the best canned soup I've ever eaten. It's rich and creamy. It tastes like it's full fat. I'm having some now and thought I'd share.
