"Orgasms and Pancakes with all fixings? Best day ever!"

If you haven't watched Grace and Frankie yet here is your sign to do so. 😉
When I first cut out certain foods and chemicals from my diet I never really imaged being able to enjoy some of life's most tastiest and comforting meals anymore. The more I learned about the variety of wholesome food products that were able to substitute generic ingredients in recipes the more deliciously classic meals I was able to reintroduce into my healthy lifestyle without feeling guilty or sick.

I have made pancakes a few times now, once as plant based and once made with egg. Both came out delicious and nutritious free from gluten, dairy, and refined sugar or oil. I used coconut flour and a cooked sweet potato in the plant based version which made the pancakes moist and sweet while the version with eggs made them fluffy and cake-like.
