The Real Breakfast Of Champions

New Yorkers live for brunch – it’s pre-coded into our DNA to see brunch as the ultimate meal – it’s all of our favorite things packed into one event: trendy restaurant, overpriced menu, extensive cocktail list. However, sometimes I want to pull on some sweatpants and just make something myself at home.
Natures Path Organic FlaxPlus Multigrain Pancake Mix (you would think they could come up with a shorter name) is an easy way to make a whole grain breakfast packed with omega-3 rich flaxseeds ($6.79 per 26 0z. bag). This weekend, I added blueberries to the batter for added antioxidants and switched to a non-stick pan to avoid having to use butter. Despite the words “light” and “fluffy” on their packaging, these turn into pretty dense patties (eat two or three and you’ll be stuffed).
