Sweet Potato and Pecan Flapjacks



for Kevin Martin 



34 points and 4 assists..another great night for Kevin Martin. Why do I love Kevin? He walks on the court ready to play, with his childish grin is able to create points for himself  easily.  Also the boy can draw fouls..who doesn't appreciate that night after night.  Great game Kevin, to help you ease into your next big night..a heaping plate of flapjacks.  Loaded with sweet potato, toasted pecans and cinnamon these babies offer you a protein packed breakfast. Enjoy Kevin!
