Bisquick Prize Pack Giveaway

Occasionally, like this weekend I cooked a hot breakfast.  I went all out!  We had pancakes, bacon, biscuits, yogurt, and fresh fruit.  I had fresh veggies and eggs but I ran out of time to make the omelets.  I wanted my family to eat while everything else was still hot. Cooking three things at once was testing my kitchen multitasking ability to the max (click here to read about why I need a Kitchen Aide). Our kitchen was very atmospheric with lots of smoke to.  The whys and hows of that are another blog post.

Normally, I make pancakes from scratch using a recipe from our church recipe book that my mom had given to me when I moved out on my own.  Sometimes when I am cooking several things at once or I am in a hurry, I will use a mix such as Bisquick (like this weekend).  My husband and daughter never know the difference.

Bisquick is currently sponsoring Bisquick Pancake Nation.  It is a national effort to get people in the community to coordinate and execute pancake breakfasts for local non-profit organizations.  It is a fun way to give back to your community.

The website also has the following free event planning tools making planning your event a cinch:
  • a calculator to figure out how many pancakes you need based on the estimated number of people who will attend your event
  • customizable invites
  • signage
  • fun printable placemats 
  • tips
Your organization can also apply to receive a $250 grant from Bisquick.  Grants will be awarded from now until May 31st.

Not interested in planning an event put interested in eating your way through a short stack and supporting a local organization?  You can find a local pancake breakfast fundraiser near you.  I found a pancake breakfast a few miles away from our home.

Check out how you can win all the things you'll need to make a pancake breakfast for your family below!
