Here at the Quest Nutrition blog two things we love are Mardi Gras and pancakes. We love many things. Hundreds, maybe even thousands of things. Two of them though are Mardi Gras and pancakes and we’re very excited that the great minds in the Quest Test Kitchen decided to combine them.

Toppers are definitely not included in the macros for these pancakes so don’t get too into the spirit of Mardi Gras when topping them.

Laissez les bon temps rouler!
