This is why this blog is not called "Healthy Plate"
I have never claimed to be the healthiest person or even have aspirations to be. I love food, I love living a healthier life, but I also love indulging and apparently this weekend is the weekend to showcase just how much I enjoy indulging and it started Saturday AM at the Brownstone Diner in Jersey City, NJ (also featured on the Food Network FYI).
This particular diner is known for their pancakes and I love myself a good pancake...enter the Pancake Wrap. It's an oxymoron - pancakes should not be wraps because wraps imply healthy and this is completely NOT.
One oversized pancake filled with scrambled eggs (the whole egg! not just the whites), bacon and cheese!! And yes gosh darn-it I almost ate the whole thing. I might as well say I ate the whole thing, I had approximately 6 more bites left. Frankly, I wish I knew how many calories this puppy owned because I am positive it teeters on the edge of 1,000...if anyone cares to figure it out please let me know.
The point of this post is simply to show that enjoying something that is decadent is completely ok. For instance, the last time I had this pancake wrap was over a year ago.
Think about it, if you always ate food like this, it would be as exciting.
Lesson for the day - all good things in moderation.
