This recipe is as quick and easy as it is zippy with crunch and spice. By using premade pancakes (you can keep a package in the freezer) you can literally have these on the table in a quarter of an hour — perfect for midweek meals and last-minute suppers when everyone’s tummy is rumbling.
By finishing them off in the grill, you can a nice melted cheese topping, as dark and crispy as you like it. It’s also a fun way to sneak vegetables into your diet.
