Dr. Praeger's Bombay Spinach Pancakes

Bombay Spinach Pancakes are green because they have more spinach than potatoes, peas, onions, eggs, oat bran, canola oil, curry, salt, garlic, egg whites, and spices. Turns out that's the entire ingredient list. And the lists for the Dr's three other absolutely scrumptious frozen pancakes -- Broccoli, Potato, and (non-Bombay) Spinach -- are equally simple and nutritious.

The numbers are easy on your body: 70 calories and three or four grams of fat (less than one of them saturated) per pancake. Best of all, there is no trans fat, because Dr. Praeger refuses to use heart-damaging hydrogenated oils.

Each pancake adds nearly a quarter of a day's vitamin A and five percent of a day's vitamin C, calcium, and iron to your diet.

And the cooking instructions are as simple as the ingredients: Just microwave for two minutes or broil for five to eight minutes per side. Dr. Praeger, a cardiac surgeon, also makes delicious nuggets, burgers, and fish sticks. You can probably find him in your local supermarket's freezer case.
