*Spoiler Alert* NOT A HEALTHY BREAKFAST
I like camp food. For some reason few things taste better than food cooked over a fire in cast iron pans. This was inspired by our trip to Yellowstone this summer where a plump little squirrel was always in our camp.
Dad: Good morning kids!
Kids: Good Morning Dad!
Dad: I want you all to know that today’s breakfast is considered a delicacy in some parts of the world.
Kids: Faces covered with grimaces and blank looks. (this is usually what happens when I preface a meal with a similar quote-enter evil laugh here)
Dad: I present to you “Squirrel Poop Pancakes”
Kids: Yuck!
LOL the kids ended up loving breakfast and as a result ran downstairs to put away their clean clothes to burn up their new-found yet short lived burst of energy.
To make this kid appealing breakfast you need the following items:
2 cups of flour
1/3 cup sugar
3 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp vanilla
milk
squirrel poop (chocolate chips work fine)
Make sure to mix all of dry ingredients first, without the poop, before adding the vanilla and milk. After your batter is prepared simply drop for or five pieces of poop on the pancake as it cooks. As I said it is not a healthy breakfast but hey every once in a while we all need something fun right?

Jeff I know it is not chicken and dumplings but Magda and Adelle made everything except the dumplings for that so... maybe next time. P.S. Stay tuned for dutch oven manicotti.
