Crepes

Busy,busy weekend! I’m off to a family get together in York Beach, ME in a little while, but here is a quick dinner idea I whipped together this week. Crepes! So yummy and easy, and they feel sort of special. These are also perfect for dessert with bananas and nutella, or strawberries and whipped cream. Delish!

Crepes

Ingredients
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 cup all purpose unbleached flour
2 eggs
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 low-fat milk
1/2 cup water
2 tbsp. melted butter (or substitute)

1.) Combine the wet ingredients then mix in the flour and salt (I use a whisk).
2.) Heat a large skillet to medium heat.
3.) Spray the pan with a bit of cooking spray. Pour 1/2 cup of the batter into the pan. Lift the pan up and tilt it around to spread the batter into a thin, even layer.
4.) When the edges are looking solid (a minute or two) flip it over and cook another minute or so.
5.) Keep the crepes warm in a 250* oven while you’re making the rest.
6.) Fill with whatever you like. I used ham, goat cheese and sauteed spinach, peas and onions. Mushrooms and swiss cheese are a perfect combination as well.

About sweetersalt

Salt = sodium = bad. Sweet = calories = bad. Well, isn't that just a bleak outlook. I firmly believe that without salt and without sweet we all just live in a world of lettuce. Plain lettuce. Fun? No. This blog is about life. Namely, my life. But, not that specific. I myself am simply not that interesting. I live an ordinary life, work an ordinary job and do ordinary things. But... life is all about experiencing that feeling you get when you really, really like something. If you don't feel a little warm in your heart when you walk into a farmer's market or try on a piece of beautiful clothing that fits you perfectly (that just so happens to be a great deal!) then you should probably keep on a' movin' from my little plot of internet. Sweeter salt is my metaphor for the good things in life, sprinkled over everything in moderation. Banana? Kinda boring. Banana smoothie - yum! White tank top? Yawn. Statement necklace layered over said tank - now we're talking! I live in Portland, Maine. I love cooking, eating out, riding my bike and approachable fashion. This blog does not chronicle my every waking moment. This is because you will probably not be entertained by the 10th day in a row that I eat the exact same salad for lunch. It does chronicle a healthy, active, fun-filled, colorful lifestyle, in Portland and beyond. It also covers dogs. Cute ones mostly.

  2. My old roommate used to make us crepes ALL THE TIME! They are so delicious, but I’ve never tried them savory like yours. We always had fruit, chocolate, PB or whipped cream involved.
