cinnamon.

i've been on a serious smoothie kick the past week. 
today i made this smoothie.
it honestly was probably the best smoothie i have EVER had.
i think it's because it was a combination of everything i love. 
greek yogurt, cinnamon, and oatmeal (which is the key to a great smoothie)
i probably at least tripled the amount of cinnamon. 

last week i had a major craving for churros
so a couple of friends and myself made them.
they are so easy. and here is the recipe
homemade churros.
1 cup water
2 1/2 tablespoons white sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup AP flour
oil for frying
1/2 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon (i'd probably do like 3 though)

1. in saucepan over medium heat combine water, 2 1/2 tablespoons sugar, salt and 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. bring to boil and remove from heat. stir in the flour until mixture forms a ball. 
2. heat the oil for frying to about 375 degrees. pipe strips of dough into hot oil using a pastry bag. fry until golden. drain on paper towels
3. combine the sugar and cinnamon. roll the churros. DONE.

i'm obsessed with cinnamon. 
more recipes to come!
