packet Question from Newbie

Hi Everyone!

This morning, I attempted to make the chocolate pancake. it was a burnt mess, stuck to my pan, and was inedible.

i made myself 2 egg whites instead.

do i still need to have a 3rd packet today, since i had the 2 egg whites for breakfast? i have extra packets, but not sure if i should just sub out the packet for the 2 egg whites i ate.

thanks!!

I would have another packet. It will help keep you full today. Keep on track with them...2 egg whites wouldn't fill me up at all... they (2) are counted as a freebie anyway... Just my 2cents. :)

I would agree with fourstubbs. I usually have an extra egg white every day, but two would not affect you at all. they are high is protein, which is what you want.
I like to add an egg white to my pudding muffins for my evening snack.

This is the exact reason I bought myself a new non-stick pan. My first burnt/goop was lesson enough that these things are fussy to cook with. My "family" pans were also too big. I see some people have small "rings" to put in the bottom of pans... I may try that too... but it seems stores have lots of "sales" on right now as students head back to school so spending the price of 2 packs to get a good small pan will save you throwing any more away! ;)

I spray my pans with PAM (I also have good NEW pans...small ones), and the rings. And I start the heat on high until I put the mixtures in the pan, and then turn to low, and cook for anywhere from 5 - 10 minutes. Low heat works well.

I have not done much in the microwave, but I know many people here use it.
Think Non stick pans and PAM :hug::hug::hug:

I have NEVER had success with making it into a pancake. I really do not know what I do wrong. I always make it into a cake in the microwave. When you figure it out, please post your secret!

I've never used the chocolate pancake mix (was always satisfied with unrestricted Crispy Cereal pancakes) - but I've heard others say they never had success with it as a pancake, just as a muffin.

Two egg whites only have ~8g protein (and are usually counted as "free" anyways), where an IP packet typically has ~18g of protein. You really need to make sure you keep up the protein in particular to keep your lean mass well fueled.
