Happy World Nutella Day!

February 6 is World Nutella Day! Obviously I had to celebrate. I whipped up some homemade nutella using my Magic Bullet, and ate it on clementine slices.

THE RECIPE (nutella):

1/4 c hazelnuts
1 tbs almond milk (or water)
1 tsp vanilla
1 tbs raisins
dash salt
1 tbs cocoa powder
1/2 tbs agave nectar, /to taste

All proportions can be adjusted to taste. Blend until smooth in a food processor. (I was lazy and left mine chunky)
