Veggie Pancakes

The boys and I just whipped up these tasty little pancakes for lunch. They were so easy, even a 2 and 4 year old could make them ;) Of course, I did the cooking part, but everything else was by them. They chose their veggies, measured everything, and stirred it together. And boy oh boy were they delicious! Big D dipped his in ketchup, Little D chose a ketchup-ranch combo. Salsa and/or sour cream would also make great dip options. Yum! You could use any veggie(s) you want for these. Give em a try and I'm sure these will become part of your meal cycle! Enjoy!
