brown rice pancakes with braised daikon & celery

I never met me a daikon I didn’t like.

Ok, I’m lying, I really don’t think I’ve actually ever met a daikon before. Not a one. This was my first encounter.

So this was a great surprise … something that felt a hair decadent (Healthy pancakes? Really?) with brand new flavors. Pretty colors too! Make sure not to cook the celery too long to keep it nice ‘n fresh green.

When you’re eating healthier, it’s important to mix it up and try things with a variety of flavors and textures, to keep your taste buds engaged ‘n interested.
