My kids complain constantly about being bored with breakfast. I have been searching for some thing that we can do other than cold cereal and pancakes. I love pancakes – but we are getting into the warmer days, which means I need to up my game and figure out something else for them. I was browsing some different recipes and found one for Yogurt Drops, which was one the featured recipes on Sweet Peas & ABC’s, and I fell in love!
