Your Best College Buddy - Pancake Mix

You may not realize this, but pancake mix can go a really long way to saving you some cash in college. It is also something that you can use to create quite a few culinary feats easily and healthily - it is just an added bonus that it is on the cheap.

The first benefit to having boxes of pancake mix around is that it does not need to be refrigerated.

The second great benefit is that you usually only need to add water - which is free!

Here are just a few things that you can easily create with pancake mix:

Pancakes! 


Waffles - provided you have a waffle iron. Look on craigslist or at yard sales. You can usually get them for less than 5 bucks.


Biscuits - this is an easy recipe that I will elaborate in a separate post very soon.

Crepes - this is such an easy recipe. You basically make them the same way you would make pancakes, just add a little more water so that the batter is runny and beat out ALL the lumps - I will have more in a separate post at a later time.

And More! If you have any special recipes involving pancake batter, please share them in a comment and let us know how you get creative with this simple ingredient!
