Pancakes

1 Egg Yolk
4 Egg Whites
1/2 - 1 tsp Baking Powder
Dash of Splenda, Cinnamon & Nutmeg
1/3 cup dry oats
1 tblsp. Ground Flax Meal

Blend together in a blender & cook like regular pancakes.

**Tip: Use a small fry pan (only big enough for 1 cake) coated liberally with cooking spray & a small drizzle of olive oil.

**Note: Added thawed blueberries I had bought in summer when they were at their peak & frozen, then served with SF Syrup & vegetarian sausage links.

This sounds great but what is Ground Flax Meal? And Nutmeg?

Nutmeg is a spice -- looks like a truffle or round nut when whole & can be grated or you can just buy it in the store already ground.....

Ground Flax Meal is ground up flax seeds --> looks kinda like bread crumbs

"BBQ" Meatloaf

**This makes a pretty big loaf -- feel free to adjust for smaller portion.

Sauce:
4oz tomato sauce
1 Tblsp. Worcestershire Sauce
1 Tblsp. Chili Powder
1 Tblsp. Red Wine Vinegar
Dash Garlic Powder
Few Dashes Mrs. Dash Extra Spicy Seasoning
Liberal amount of Tabasco Chipotle Sauce (10 dashes +)

Mix sauce ingredients together & set aside.

Meatloaf:
1 pound ground Turkey
1 pound Laura's Extra Lean Organic Ground Beef
2 Egg Whites
2 Tblsp. Italian Seasoning
~ 1/4 cup Minced Onion
2 Garlic Cloves, Minced
1/4 cup + 1 tblsp. (if needed, more if needed) Raw Wheat Bran or Oatmeal
Dash or so Dried Cajun Spice
1/2 of above sauce mixture

Have a cookie sheet/jellyroll pan (sheet witha lip) with a rack set on top. Coat rack with cooking spray. Mix all meatloaf ingredients together in a bowl. Form into a loaf shape, place on rack & bake at 375 for 40 minutes.

Brush some of remaining sauce over meatloaf. Bake for an additional 20 minutes, brushing with remaining sauce the whole time. There may be extra sauce -- either serve on the side or use up while baking. ** If you're going to serve the sauce on the side, heat it up first, cuz dipping the brush in the sauce & brushing it on the meat will contaminate the sauce.

** TIP: Tomato sauce comes in 8oz cans..... Freeze the remaining 4oz. in an ice cube tray & keep the cubes in a plastic baggie.
