Denise,
I've seen variations of this recipe on OH, but this is the one I use:
Cottage Cheese Oatmeal Pancakes
Mix together in a blender or with a hand mixer (I just use a mixer):
1/3 c. oatmeal (dry)--I use quick-cooking/instant, but I think the regular kind is fine.
1 egg
1 heaping Tbls. cottage cheese--I use low-fat.
splash of skim milk--I hate measurements like these!--I think I just use about a Tbls or so.
cinnamon (1/4 to 1/2 tsp?)
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 c. Splenda (optional)--I definitely use it.
Coat a small frying pan w/ Pam or other spray. Pour the whole mixture in the pan for one big pancake. I don't remember how long on each side--just kinda watch it til it seems done. Serve w/ s.f. syrup--or fruit & lt. Cool Whip--or just whatever you want!
Sorry I don't have the nutritional stats on this--I probably did at one time--but fairly easy to just add everything up since it's a single serving. I kinda forgot about making this--it's been a long time (thus, my rather vague instructions!)--I'll have to make it soon!

I guess I'm pretty boring. I have the same thing every single day (for almost three years now). I have a protein shake - the same kind always - made with soy milk, cocoa, vanilla protein powder and frozen strawberries. It starts me off with about 35 grams of protein. I'm big on my shakes, though. I drink 2-3 of them a day. I know, boring, but it works for me. I can't stomach most foods in the morning, so drinking works.
