I’m definitely a pear shape and when it comes to self critiquing, LEGS are my weakness. Shared by the expertise of fellow Go Strong Mama, Jennifer Dolan Regina, I decided to double up on leg day. I’ll share the two leg workouts (instead of one) I did this week.

Post Workout out I come home to Pumpkin Oatmeal Pancakes served with eggs. Here’s how Chris made the pancakes.
Combine
2 cups of oatmeal grind to a powder
4 oz of pumpkin puree
1/2 tsp of baking soda
2 cups of Almond Milk. You can use less or more depending on the thickness you like
1/2 tablespoon cinnamon
1 tsp of All Spice
Then they’re ready for the griddle.

The two women I mentioned above are amazing! They are both accomplished competitors and Mama’s who are great resources for all women. Go Strong!
I like both eggs and pancakes, but have never thought of eating them together! Also, pumpkin pancakes sounds super delicious. Thanks for sharing.
