As the household decluttering efforts continue (slowly, but we seem to be maintaining the progress we make), one of the areas I'm trying to cut down and bring some order to is my recipe collection. A lot of our favorite recipes currently exist only in handwritten, legible-only-to-Lexi format, and it's crossed my mind more than once that if we have a fire, as it currently stands my recipe collection would be gone. And I'm not sure if I could re-find a lot of them.
Vik's has them, or if Bazaar of India is easier to get to, they carry them too.
(Actually, I'm sure all the Indian groceries around here must carry them, but I was realizing the other day what a creature of habit I've been, shopping only at Vik's and Bazaar of India. Gotta check out the others.)
These were invented one morning because regular pancakes sounded so boring I mean I have only had them 2,000 times the same way.
Mandarin Coconut Pancakes.
Pancake Mix Mandarin Oranges Honey Coconut Milk Almond Extract Cardomon Roasted Crushed Pistachios Egg | Butter (not margarine or oil - ew!) if recipe calls for it
Do what pancake mix box asks for, but use coconut milk for *water*. Add water if it feels like you will make lead pancakes. Fold in oranges and tiny bit of cardomon and a little bit of almond extract.
Cook in butter and sprinkle honey and butter and crushed pistachios on the top to taste.

Oh, man oh man do those sound good.
Might have to try them with coconut oil instead of butter, though — we've really been enjoying the effect it gives in some dishes.
Now I'm famished. And we can't go get breakfast until after we've done our Egoscue exercises. Gaah. You recipe-flaunting sadist, you.
