This is a great comfort food that serves a lot and won't put a huge dent in your daily calories. It's great on a cold snowy day and also good to put in before you leave for work in the morning. Dinner is ready when you walk in the door that night!

Serve with rye muffins, roasted potatoes and steamed carrots. Delicious and perfect for Sunday Supper.
This has no eggs or mayo so is great for picnics and cookouts since it doesn't have to be refrigerated. We make it the day before to really meld the flavor. Great-Grandfather Bornkessel, a waiter, brought this recipe with him when he left Germany, worked in Switzerland then came to USA. Super high in potassium if you are restricted be careful.

I'm calling these "European" Pancakes as opposed to the ones i have come to know as American Pancakes, because mine are thin and about 8" in diameter, instead of small, thick and fluffy.
They are known all over Europe, the French call them Crepe, the Dutch Pannenkoeken and the Austrians and Czech Palatschinken.
They can be sweet or hearty - i add apple slices for my favourites.
Add a LITTLE extra flavor to your veggies by pan frying up some turkey bacon while you steam your veggies until they are ALMOST DONE. Then add them to the pan with bacon and stir. The flavor of the bacon permeates the veggies. This IS tastier with real bacon as the flavor is stronger, but healthier with the turkey bacon.

Not necessarily a typical diet food, but better than a plate of nachos.

Really easy and best with fresh ingredients, also great if you have left-over broccoli from a previous dinner.
