The Inevitable Food Post

I knew I'd have to post food one of these days! It's just part of being vegan, I think.  After laying in bed for 2 hours after I woke up today, I decided to make "breakfast".  Banana pancakes with chocolate-banana chocolate sauce with crushed hazelnuts on top and strawberries on the side.  The banana craze is due mostly to the fact that there were very cheap organic bananas at the produce place I go to.  A friend of mine got birthday banana-bread for this same reason!

Anyway.  The banana pancakes I altered (of course... when do I ever follow a recipe?) from this http://www.vegfamily.com/vegan-recipes/entrees/brainless-banana-pancakes.htm recipe that I found online.  I used maple syrup as a sweetener, and added vanilla extract and cinnamon.  The chocolate sauce was 1/4 cup of soymilk, heated up plus half a Chocolove 70% dark chocolate bar (melted, of course), mashed in half a banana, added some vanilla extract, and some maple syrup. Yumm. 

That's all for today :)
