Saturday Morning Pancakes

Kids don't refuse pancakes, they beg for them. Let's use that motivation to do some good. "You get them started," I told my 9 year old son, Griffin. He did most of the work while I read the paper.I arrived in time to sprinkle the pancakes with flax seed meal before he flipped them.
I portion the syrup into small bowls because I once saw Griffin dipping sausage into syrup. Also, we're big on the real deal maple syrup. It is higher in sugar content than the 'lite' versions, but it's real and not loaded with chemicals. A little goes a long way in flavor. Ah, maple syrup -- a fine flavor savor in flavoring baked goods and salad dressings.
Sliced berries and a glass of milk (carb + protein for peak energy).
