How to Zone a Kodiak buttermilk pancake!
I love these pancakes, they are so delicious and they are protein packed. Plus, if you check out the ingredients list, these pancakes are pretty clean, particularly relative to other brands of pancakes. 

Protein: 14g / 7g = 2 block protein
Carbohydrate: 30g / 9g = 3.3 ≈ about 3 blocks of carbs
Fat: 2g / 3g = .67 ≈ about 1 block of fat. 

I am usually looking for a 4 block meal, so I would grab the serving size (53g) and divide it by the macronutrient that has the most blocks (carbohydrates - 3.3 bl), then you will get a gram/block. With that number you can multiply by the number of blocks you need. Below I multiplied by 4 to get a 4 block carbohydrate. 
53g/3.3bl = 16g/bl x 4bl = 64.3g
So I would measure out about 65g!
How can you make this a little more well rounded? Well, we need to supplement protein and fat... What better way to supplement a protein/fat than a couple slices of BACON! I would pair 2 thick cut slices or 3 thinner cut slices with my giant pancake. Voila! 4 block delicious pancake breakfast!
