If I Dream It...

I wish I could explain where the thought for these tilapia tacos came from... but other than having extra cabbage I have no good excuse :) I love cabbage - thing is I buy it with one recipe in mind and then I have to come up with different ways to use it :) So with cabbage in mind and a peach that was starting to near the too ripe point, my version tilapia tacos with peach salsa was born.

So this weekend I finally set to taking the time to take care of that craving :) Now I don't generally think healthy when I think pancakes - but I didn't want something too bad for me. So I figured - wheat pancakes. I mixed together some wheat flour, coconut flour, ground flax seed, and baking powder and I had the base for my pancakes ready. To finish the batter I mixed together some milk, salt, and maple syrup. Maple just sounded good and out of my usual sweeteners it is surprisingly the lowest in sugar content. Then I tossed in some blueberries and decided to make a blueberry syrup to go with them :) And just because it sounded good I added coconut flakes to top it all off..... Mmmmm YUM! In case anyone else finds this interesting -- here's the sugar / calorie break out for the 3 options I looked at for my syrup... clover honey: 1 Tbl = 16g sugar and 60 cals blue agave: ...
