Chocolate Pancakes for Breakfast!

Yes, we're running low on the breakfast materials, so the girls requested pancakes.  Again.

I try to make them as healthy as I can, by adding pureed stuff from the magical Vita-Mix.  So, with the Sneaky Chef in mind... today's goal: Chocolate Pancakes.

What goes into Chocolate Pancakes that could possibly make them HEALTHY, you ask?  Spinach and blueberries.  (and cocoa powder and a pinch of instant coffee to bring out the chocolate flavor).  Perhaps I put a little too much spinach in mine, eh?

Yes, I know, green pancakes, yuck, right?  I had the flash on the camera, so they actually look a lot greener here than they did in person.  Rather than keep adding stuff, and totally screwing it up, I just went with it.  (with a few added chocolate chips)  The verdict:  They tasted like warm, buttery chocolate CAKE!  No butter or syrup needed!  SCORE!!  

I know you won't believe ME, so...
