Sweet Potato Pancakes

‘Twas the week before Christmas, and all through the house, not an item was clean, not even a blouse! But seriously, though, is it just me, or is the week before the holidays just absolute chaos?! I feel like my head is spinning!

With all of the holiday prep and family fun, it can feel nearly impossible to stay on your health + fitness A game! Lucky for you, Chris and I (and the TRANSFORM app!) have taken the guesswork out of your diet this season. Less time on figuring out what the heck you’re going to eat = more time with family for Christmas. Small victory!

Something about the cold weather has me CRAVING hearty, hot breakfasts lately! And with the kids home for two weeks for winter break, there’s no reason I shouldn’t be whipping them up something hot and healthy every morning. If you’re short on time, but want something nutritious and delicious, try our Sweet Potato Pancakes. These bad boys are so freaking good, and they?ll be one of the new recipes in our next TRANSFORM App update! #sneakpeek
