Breakfast Blueberry Smoothie

I love smoothies!! I don't even know if there is anyone who doesn't :) We can do sooo many variations, make it indulgent or rather healthy or just stick to the king of smoothies: banana smoothie :P
I went on a cleansing in February and since I didn't have a juicer I drank healthy smoothies instead of carrot and other vegetables juices. I can tell, I wouldn't have lasted the cleanse if I was drinking those amazing carrot-apple-celery juices hahahahaa
But with delicious smoothies of all kinds....Bring it on!!! My favorite was pineapple-banana-orange. Soooo good!! I simply cut the fruits into smaller pieces and added to the blender with some water. Great for breakfast if someone usually doesn't eat or like breakfast because it doesn't make me full just drinking itself. But this blueberry smoothie really does!
Since I added plain yogurt (I used Activia) and some milk to the blueberries and blended it together. Ice goes really well with it, too! Oh and for sweetening I used some cane sugar syrup, around 1 or 1 and a half teaspoon to a 4 dl smoothie but honey or agave syrup is great, too! It just depends on how one likes it. I like my smoothies to be a little sweet but mostly sweet from the natural sweetness of the fruits.

I can never have enough blueberries! They are so rich in antioxidants and vitamins...And so less in calories! Perfect for smoothies and pancakes and outmeal and waffles or just fruit salad...Ah I can never get enough. Too bad Hungary doesn't really have any, if so it's so expensive! So i just eat the frozen version...

Homemade Nutella

I was an exchange student (ah how many times I've said this sentence...) 5 years ago in the US. I'm not gonna talk about how it was (AMAZING) but then and there I gained sisters! Now I have one living in the States and one living in Germany. And next week we are gonna be reunited! I can't wait, I am so excited! So this week I am going to Germany and was thinking what I should bring. Because basically Germany has everything that Hungary has, if not more. So what to give what to give? I was thinking really hard when a completely random thing came to my mind. I should make some nutella. She loves nutella. Frankly, who doesn't, right? I love it, too although it's been years since I ate any. I can't really explain why because I always think that if I eat just one spoon, I will gain a 100 pounds immediately. But with this thought, I shouldn't be eating any brownies, cookies...etc.  BUT today I tried my homemade Nutella. OH MY GOD. I wouldn't have though...

Hungarian Kakaós Csiga (Chocolate Rolls)

Frankly, I missed baking so much! Even though I needed one baking-free month to lose all the weight I gained due to the excessive baking mania I got over this summer I just cannot stop it! So I decided that I don't have to give up this love of mine but I do have to figure out something that will not leave me end up gaining weight again. What to do, what to do...Bake only in the weekends! And probably I should get a grip and not stuff my face until I can't move...Which didn't really happen today. I ate like 6 of these lovely chocolate rolls...I guess, no dinner for Csilla tonight :P These rolls are from a traditional Hungarian pastry recipe. I called my Grandma to ask for the recipe and as it always happens with Grandma recipes she did not know the measurements...I don't know if it's only with my grandmas but they always work with their eyes so they usually have no idea how much grams I need from this or that... So I turned to an ancient Hungarian cookbook and that...
