Berry Fulfilling Greek Yogurt Protein Pancakes
My job seems to be very bipolar lately. One night I have the craziest patients ever, call lights are going off left and right, and we get swamped with new admissions. The next night you can hear a pin drop in the rooms and I’m just begging for someone to need me at 2am when my eyes just can’t take it anymore.
Last night was the later of the two. It was so S-L-O-W! Thank God for Netflix on my phone and ABC.com for free episodes. I caught up on all my favorite TV shows while fitting in a few runs throughout the stairwell… got to get some exercise in. 7:30 am couldn’t come quicker!
After sleeping the day away, I woke up to one thought… Breakfast!
Lately my desire to cook has been suppressed due to the mortuary of gnats in our kitchen. But since the little guys surrendered, I figured it was a perfect time to experiment in the kitchen.
Greek Yogurt Pancakes anyone?
After playing around with a few ingredients, I found a perfect combination that of Greek Yogurt and Berry Medley for a loaded protein pancake.
I present to you, Berry Fulfilling Greek Yogurt Pancakes!

Love berries with pancakes and I imagine the greek yogurt adds a great touch! That would be so hard for me – going from a hectic day to a low-key one and never really knowing what to expect. You make it work though!
Can’t wait to try these!
