Would you like to make a special breakfast for your family without a lot of work? They are sure to appreciate this recipe for Orange Pancakes with a homemade tropical sauce instead of syrup. Do you prefer a sandwich for breakfast? Rather than run out to your local fast food joint on the corner, you can make your own healthy English Muffin Breakfast Sandwich. Impress the youngsters with tasty but easy Cinnamon Twists.

ORANGE PANCAKES with CITRUS SAUCE
2 cups biscuit mix (ie Bisquick)
1 cup orange juice
2 eggs

In a medium bowl, stir together the biscuit mix, orange juice, and eggs. Do not beat pancake batter. Using a hot griddle (or heavy skillet), pour pancake mix on the griddle, about 3 to 4 tablespoonfuls per pancake. Cook over medium heat for about 2 minutes per side. The top should start to be bubbly before you turn the first time. Keep warm until serving. Serve with the Citrus Sauce below.

1/4 cup sugar
1 tbsp cornstarch
1 1/4 cups orange juice
2 tbsps butter
1 can (8-oz) pineapple tidbits, drained]
1 medium banana, sliced and dipped in the pineapple juice

In a small saucepan, combine the sugar and cornstarch. Stir in the orange juice. Cook and stir over medium heat until thick and bubbly. Cook and stir for 2 more minutes. Remove from the heat. Stir in margarine and pineapple. Stir in banana while sauce is warm. Serve over pancakes.

YOUR OWN BACON, EGG, & CHEESE ENGLISH MUFFIN SANDWICH
1/4 cup egg substitute
1 Whole-wheat English muffin, split and toasted
1 slice low-fat cheese
1 slice already cooked bacon; halved

Spray a small skillet with nonstick cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Add the egg substitute and cook until set, stirring or turning occasionally. Spoon mixture onto 1/2 of the English muffin. Top egg with the cheese slice and bacon. Place other half of the English muffin on top to form a sandwich.

HOMEMADE CINNAMON TWIST
1 sheet puff pastry dough
1 large egg
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 tbsp cinnamon
1 tsp freshly grated nutmeg

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Cut the pastry sheet into quarters. Cut each quarter into 6 strips. Take 2 strips and twist them together. Combine the brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Whisk the egg as an egg wash for the twists. Apply the egg wash to the twists then dip them in the brown sugar mixture. Place on a baking sheet and bake at 450 degrees for 10 minutes or until lightly browned.

It's the Little Things That Matter

!±8± It's the Little Things That Matter

Most of the time advertising is looked at for the messaging and design. But matching the characters and the environment in the spot to the target audience is one of the most important aspects to a successful spot. This is something the Ultimate Account Guy looks at a lot. When this aspect is off, it leads to a feeling of something missing. It's a nice finishing touch to complete the painting.

The Bisquick Shake n'Pour spot is a great example of matching the casting and set design to the target audience. They resisted the urge to go with the gourmet kitchen with the six burner stove and stainless steel appliances that is so prevalent in many of the foreclosed houses these days. They resisted the urge to go with the primped and polished mom. You know the one I'm talking about. The one that wakes up with perfect hair and make up fully done.

They selected an actress that if you saw walking down the street, would look like any other mom. She's the happy, dutiful mom that is excited to be able to give her children a breakfast they'll love and doesn't have to worry about messing her Prada shoes.

The kitchen design is even better. This product is not going to be used by a lower income family because it costs a little more than the other mix. This product will not be used by a wealthy family because they do not make name brand pancakes from a plastic bottle. Who is going to use this product? Middle America. And that is exactly who this kitchen is patterned after. The classic white sink, white counter tops and white stove reeks of flowing plains of Kansas, or the rolling hills of North Carolina.

All in all, I think this is a great spot. It's not going to win any awards. But it does what advertising is supposed to do. It makes the consumer aware of the product and its benefits and it does a great job of it.
