Free Meal Plan: Peanut Butter Pancakes

For Father's day, try a delicious steak and mango wrap or snag our recipe for Peanut Butter Pancakes to surprise Dad for breakfast. He'll love them! If BBQing is more his speed, then Southwest Turkey burgers will be sure to please him. Any way you slice it, you'll find something to let him know he's the best Dad ever!

These are my favorite way to eat beef in a wrap now; the sweet mango, crunchy red pepper, spinach, and tender beef make a delicious combination!

Beef and Mango Wraps

Veggies and Dip

There's nothing like a simple stir fry when you need to get dinner on the table fast. I used what veggies I had on hand, which turned out to be asparagus and red peppers.

Steamed Rice

Fortune cookies

This dish was such a hit in our house that my 14 year old ate three helpings, then insisted that the leftovers just HAD to be his. It's a super fast, full of flavor way to make salmon. Yum!

Steamed Rice

You can never have too many burger recipes! This one came from Rachael Ray and is packed full of flavor! We loved them with some spicy cheese and all the fixings.

Peanut Butter Pancakes

Adapted from The Crepes of Wrath

1 cup flour

1 tbsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

3 tbsp sugar

1 egg

1 cup plus 3 tbsp milk

1/2 cup peanut butter, melted (creamy recommended)

2 tbsp vegetable oil

1 tbsp butter

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Set aside.

Whisk together the egg, milk, peanut butter, and vegetable oil. Dump them into the flour mixture and gently whisk. Add a little more milk if you think it's too thick.

Meanwhile, heat up your griddle. Melt a little butter on it and move it around to grease the whole thing. Pour out the batter by 1/4 cupfuls. They will spread a bit, but they won't get lots of bubbles like regular pancakes. Cook about 3 minutes per side.

Makes 10-12 pancakes
