Mysty PfefferWhat better way to increase protein and fiber than with Fresh-milled grains and cottage cheese pancakes! Yep, the latest craze is sweeping the nation and bursting with new ways to feed our families in a healthier way, and I LOVE it!
It’s clean whole food that is kid friendly and belly pleasing in an exciting way! I paired these pancakes with some Jones Chicken Sausage links, that are full of wholesome spices, and ZERO Msg, nitrates, or nitrites. . . enjoying a more power packed protein breakfast
This recipe makes 12 small pancakes which serves 4 people about 3 cakes giving them 9.5 grams of protein per serving. Added with the sausage links you have 10 more grams of protein. Fresh-milled grains are famous for retaining their abundance of B vitamins, so you’ll be doing your family a favor in that area. Plus, serving your favorite fresh fruit with this meal adds vitamin C, fiber, and more nutrients.
Don’t you love how God’s goodness in fresh-milled grains and His design for perfect forms of protein are available to us in our local grocery stores?! When we look beyond the physical presence of things to see our divine Designer and Provider, we can live grateful and productive lives!
Devotion
You visit the earth and water it;
you greatly enrich it;
the river of God is full of water;
you provide their grain,
for so you have prepared it.
You water its furrows abundantly,
settling its ridges,
softening it with showers,
and blessing its growth.
You crown the year with your bounty;
your wagon tracks overflow with abundance.
The pastures of the wilderness overflow,
the hills gird themselves with joy,
the meadows clothe themselves with flocks,
the valleys deck themselves with grain,
they shout and sing together for joy.Psalm 65 ESV – O God of Our Salvation – To the – Bible Gateway
God enriches the earth and fills it. He waters it in His timing, and it overflows. There is joy in embracing and consuming the items He provides! Nature is a glorious presentation of meadows and valleys decking themselves with abundance and shouting together for joy.
It reminds me of Jesus talking to his followers about not worrying. He says, “Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass, which is alive in the field today, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, O you of little faith! And do not seek what you are to eat and what you are to drink, nor be worried. For all the nations of the world seek after these things, and your Father knows that you need them. Instead, seek his kingdom, and these things will be added to you. (Luke 12:27-31)
How much more will our joy be complete when we embrace His loving kindness, His provision, His powerful life altering Word moving and changing our lives for the better?
The physical and spiritual value of our faith is a worthy pursuit. I pray you find both joy and peace in them today!
