Another "Hooray!" For Trader Joes

Mother's Day brunch at home was a complete success today and this has a lot to do with the mix pictured at the left...Trader Joe's Pancake & Waffle Mix. Practically everyone can eat from this mix whether you have a sensitivity to dairy/lactose, wheat, peanuts, tree nuts, soy or corn...and it sure doesn't TASTE like you're skimping on the good stuff!

Make the mix as directed, add a little cinnamon and or/nutmeg, and pour the batter into a waffle maker. The results were just delicious....crispy yet chewy and a wonderful flavor that everyone enjoyed, not just the allergy/special diet crowd. Each waffle was very light, yet filling. Highly, highly recommended! The batter bowl was empty and everyone was asking for more.

The mix is made with sweet brown rice flour, tapioca flour, arrowroot flour, rice milk powder, cream of tartar, xantham gum, baking soda, sea salt and ground vanilla bean...nothing you can't pronounce and all natural! Also, for one serving it was .5 grams of fat and less than 1 gram of sugar. If you watch the toppings you add, you really don't have to feel any guilt.
