Red Velvet Deliciousness & Weekend Ramblings

Happy day after the Super Bowl! I can't say I was actually excited for the big game this year because both of my teams were out (Bears & Colts), but it's still always a fun time to get together with friends and family and eat lots of amazing (not at all healthy) food! 

I was originally planning to go to a friend's place for a party, but it was cancelled because of the HUGE snow storm we were supposed to get. Yeah, that turned into about an inch. But nonetheless, I ended up spending the game with family & of course, ate delicious food, and somewhat enjoyed the game. 

Let's transition to Red Velvet goodness and all things red and heart-shaped for the month of February. 

This weekend I made these:



*Insert mouth drooling*

These are my Red Velvet Gluten Free pancakes with cream cheese icing! 

Seriously, these were divine. Especially the icing, which wasn't as healthy as the pancakes, but still gluten free and delicious! I can't wait to share them with everyone at this year's farmer's market :) 

Now onto another fun recipe I made today. I always come home from work starving and craving a snack, usually something sweet. Anyone with children, I'm sure have experience with the after-school snack rush. Well I have the perfectly delicious solution. I modified a recipe a tad I found online to make this: Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Dip! 




It is great with any fruit and as you can see celery! I also think it would be great paired with Annie's gluten free cinnamon bears, or any other sweet cracker! Otherwise, if you love peanut butter as much as me, you can just eat it with a spoon. 

So here's the recipe: 
1/2 32 oz. container or 2 cups of vanilla Greek Yogurt (I prefer Greek yogurt because it makes the dip thicker)
1/4C of PB2 
1 T of Almond Butter or Peanut Butter 
1T (ish) of organic honey 
1/2 C of Enjoy Life Chocolate Chips (or any chips will do!) 

Also just a reminder to follow me on Instagram @piggypancakesindy to see all the delicious photos I post :) 

Oink, oink! Haylea
