These savory Japanese pancakes are a recipe made for the Blackstone Griddle, traditionally they would be cooked on a teppan or table top griddle. These light fluffy pancakes are filled with shredded cabbage and any number of other ingredients you would like. Known as Osaka Soul Food or Japanese Pizza, these pancakes can be filled and topped with just about any topping you can think of. The name okonomiyaki translates as:
Okonomi – “As you like it”
Yaki – “Grilled”

Tomato Soup
I don’t know if there is a better comfort food combination than tomato soup and a nice gooey, buttery grilled cheese. This tomato soup recipe is really easy and the grilled cheese is a bonus. The acid in the soup is a perfect complement to the richness of the butter and cheese in the sandwich.
