Eggless Vanilla Pancakes With Honey Lemon Syrup

Pancakes have been around forever. There must be more than a million pancake recipes on the internet and here comes someone with yet another one. Gawd. Rolling my eyes at myself.

Power Packed Chia Pudding – Healthy Breakfasts

I first ate this at the Perch restaurant in Delhi’s Khan Market and loved it. Till a month ago, I hadn’t ever gone near any chia dishes.
