WOW....I have never had home made  pancakes from scratch. I don;t have the flax seeds....can I leave them out, or where can I find them? My kids would absolutely love this !!!! They love when I make pancakes....especially banana pancakes....it is a christmas morning tradition.

Flax seed change a little bit the flavor, but I use it mostly there for it's omega 3's.

  Sounds yummy.....I never cooked with flax seed, may I ask what does it add?? Flavor or something else?

My homemade pancake:

2 cup white flour
1 cup aotmeal
1 table spoon ground flax seeds
1 the spoon vanila
1 table spoon brown sugar
2 eggs
enoughf water or milk to make a silky batter

Cook in a hot skillet with a little butter or butter substitue. Serve with maple sirup ;-p

This is just a trow together stir fry that I came up  with in a pinch for dinner and it turned out to be yummy.

Take one package of frozen stir fry, putit in pan and simmer on med. with butter or butter substitute.
Take a package of round steaks and soak in a butter and orange marinade.
once veggies are tender set aside.
Cook meat in pan in a small amount of grease until thoroughly cooked. add in the stir fry including all the marinade. ( make extra so you have some left over)
Simmer on llow 15minutes and enjoy :)

REcipe for the orange marmalade

1 orange peeled.
2-4 tsp of butter depending on amount of people you are serving
Squeeze orange until all juice is in the bowl. You may need two oranges
add a little worstichiere
Now take a veggie peeler and use it lighty slice up small and thin peices of at least ones orange.
Heat in small pot until all butter is melted.
marinate meat in for 10 minutes and add the rest to the stir fry after you have mixed it all together.

Hope you all tlike this. It is super easy to make and if you use a butter substitute it is a healty choice
