Fat Tuesday Dinner

I hope you've enjoyed my series on Mari Gras. Today marks my final post (until next year!) about this special holiday because today is what is known as Fat Tuesday, which, marks the final day in the carnival season. Best of all, the traditional meal to serve for dinner on Fat Tuesday is (drumroll, please) pancakes! How can you not love a holiday that demands breakfast for dinner?

I wish I could tell you that every time I make pancakes that I make my own mix. But, although it's not complicated, I have to say I simply don't have the time nor the patience to do so. It also gives me an excuse to use my all time, hands down, favorite pancake mix on the planet.

William Sonoma's Flappin' Jack Pancake Mix

Williams-Somoma's Flappin' Jack Pancake Mix is out of this world delicious. I won't deny that it's more expensive than many other brands, but for a special occasion, it's worth splurging and giving it a try. I promise you won't be disappointed. Use it for a Fat Tuesday dinner or for a cozy Saturday morning breakfast at home.
