Pancake Day

Today is Shrove Tuesday aka Pancake Day! :D
I got my ingredients last night so will be having...

Ingredients

200 Grams of ricotta cheese
3 eggs
I teaspoon of cinnamon
A splash of milk

Method
Mix the cheese, eggs and cinnamon into a small mixing bowl. Add a slash of milk if the mix is to thick to run freely. Place a small knob of butter into a frying pan, I use a small omelette pan 8". Heat the butter and spoon in 3 table spoons of mix. Fry until firm then turn over and cook for one minute or until the crepe is starting to brown. This mix makes between 6 and 8 crepes. Allow to cool and fill with cream cheese and finely chopped spring onions or smoked salmon and asparagus tips, whatever you like. Roll up the crepe and enjoy. Great at any time and very good for the lunch box or picnics. Also great warmed up with a scoop of low carb ice cream and double cream.

I will have savoury and sweet ones I think. Going to put it in MFP now to see the calorie and carb count :) For savoury (with ham and cheese sauce) and sweet pancakes (with lemon and Splenda) it is 737 calories and 7g carbs - not bad eh!? :)

Day 7 Level 1 of 30DS today and I am feeling bloated!! :/ I don't feel my trousers getting looser or anything! Maybe I need to push myself even harder when I work out? Or try and add 15 minutes of Wii's Your Shape in before I do 30DS? I have Portsmouth tomorrow so will only have time for 30DS tomorrow and will want something quick to cook, so maybe gammon and egg? OR spanish omelette? 

I did ham and grated cheese pancakes:




The sweet ones just had Splenda and lemon :) - YUM
