Quick, Easy, Healthy Summer Snacks

When the weather gets hot, I hate to turn on the oven or spend any more time in the kitchen than necessary, but we still love healthy, homemade snacks. We do it with pancakes. Yup, pancakes. 1 bowl, 1 plate, 1 non-stick pan. All done and cleaned up in 30 minutes. Here are the recipes:

Banana/Strawberry/Blueberry Pancakes

Use the recipe for pancakes on the Heart Smart Bisquick box. Add bananas, fresh or frozen fruit and flax seed for Omega 3.

Spice Cake Banana Pancakes

Use the recipe for pancakes on the Heart Smart Bisquick box. Add bananas, Splenda, cinnamon, nutmeg, & cloves to taste, and flax seed for Omega 3.

We make our about sand dollar size. Freeze in batches, in plastic bags, between pieces of wax paper so they’ll separate easily. They keep for weeks (maybe longer) in the freezer, thaw in less than an hour, and they make great snacks to just eat cold with nothing on them.


Please visit my OLA House for great bargains that benefit the rescue animals.
