Given that half of my family currently has some variation of a nasty stomach bug, we've stuck to lots of simple dinners this week. Tonight we went for crepes. Erik is the crowned King of All Thing Crepes so I felt pretty hesitant filling in his shoes while he was preoccupied moaning in and out of consciousness in the next room.
The recipe is ridiculously straight forward - and probably cost all of 73 cents.
1/2 cup flour
3/4 cup milk
pinch a' salt
1 tsp sugar
1 egg
Whisk together. Add small pat of butter to 8" pan. Once that was hot I poured about 1/4 cup of batter into the pan and swooshed it around for a nice thin circle. Once it sets flip it over for a few more seconds and whoa! you've got a lovely little vehicle for just about any filling. The warmed crepes smelled like all that is good and warm and holy in the world - just divine. Could have also been the butter.
Given that it was just me and the kids we went for the sweet stuff, obv. Peanut butter with banana slices... honey and cinnamon... not exactly a hearty dinner, perhaps a "light supper".
Enjoy!
By the way, here are some fun pictures from our pizza making adventure (my camera was MIA for the past few weeks). L to R: Mr. pizza Dough Man, sophia inspecting pizza in an entirely appropriate outfit, Ready to bake pizza with sauteed spinach
Result: deliciousness!
