I checked out Julia Child’s Mastering the Art of French Cooking from the library and ended up making crepes last weekend. Yums! I turned into a total crepe-fanatic while in Greece last year. I even had a crepe routine… which consisted of stopping in at a cafe every afternoon for a cappuccino or coffee freddo and a banana and Nutella crepe. And you wondered why I was so crazy about the 30 day shred after my return ;)
Although there are probably a lot of great crepe recipes out there, I really loved the simplicity of this one. After putting all the ingredients in the blender, you just put it in the fridge overnight — and voilà it’s ready in the morning… other than the “making them perfectly thin” part. Next time, I think I’ll try savory crepes.
