THE TWELVE DAYS OF FITNESS

Have you missed us?

Well get ready for LOTS OF FIT ME PINK...because today is the FIRST DAY OF FITNESS! For the next 12 days leading up to the most joyous of holidays, check back daily for the best fitness tips, tricks, gear, and recipes! That's right...remember our recipe contest? We'll be sharing some of our favorite recipes as well as ANNOUNCING THE LUCKY WINNERS sometime around the 12th Day of Fitness!

Here's one to kick off your weekend...DELICIOUS OATMEAL PANCAKES, submitted by Eleisha!

1/2 cup whole wheat flour

1/4 tsp salt

1/3 cup nonfat powdered milk

1 cup water

1 cup rolled oats

2 tsp baking powder

2 TBSP sugar

2 eggs, separated

3 TBSP vegetable oil


In large mixing bowl, combine water, oil, and oats; beat slightly and allow
to stand 5 minutes, then beat until blended. In a small bowl, beat egg whites
until stiff; set aside. Combine flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and powdered
milk; stir until well blended, then add into wet ingredients. Mix, then fold in
beaten egg whites. For small pancakes, drop 2 tablespoons batter onto griddle,
or pour 1/4 cup full for larger.

Bake until cakes are full of bubbles on top and undersides are lightly
browned. Turn with spatula and brown other side.

Serve with fresh strawberries, or other fresh fruit.

Enjoy...they are sooooo good! My family ate them for about a week straight for breakfast...seriously!

See you tomorrow!
