Mother's Day YUMMY
Happy Mother's Day from Harvest Home. You deserve a celebration (and a Thank You, Mom) for all the meals you make, the laughter you share and the tears you wipe away. What's a celebration without a meal that's a bit special? We thought you'd enjoy a different twist on a breakfast favorite: pancakes. Not thick, heavy pancakes, these are light and thin as a tortilla and twice as delicious. Fill them with fruit, like applesauce or blueberries with yogurt. Mouth-watering! And healthy!
