Crepes with zucchini and crispy ham. |
But I woke up this morning with pillow case removed from my pillow, the dogs off the bed (they only do this if I toss and turn too much) and the duvet cover inexplicably removed from the comforter.
Yeah, I can't figure out how that happened either...
So, the only thing to do this morning was to make crepes.
First the filling:
Thin sliced ham crisped up in a skillet and grated zucchini. |
The zucchini seemed a bit too wet so I squeezed out the extra liquid with a paper towel.
I put the zucchini with a little olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. I added two splashes of white wine, cracked black pepper, onion powder, dried parsley and the crispy ham.
I let it simmer until the alcohol had cooked off and the mixture was fragrant.
Then I adapted a crepe recipe I found here.
I used 1/2 cup of soymilk and 3/4 cup of water.
This is my first time cooking crepes so be kind. |
A smear of cream cheese. |
A little bit of the filling. |
Neatly folded. |
These were savory, creamy, a bit salty and incredibly delicious. And they were a lot easier to make than I thought.
I highly recommend.
The dogs enjoyed 1/2 a crepe each that was filled with peanut butter.
I hope everyone is having a great Labor Day!
Fantastic! I love sweet crepes normally but this looks like an amazing alternative.

ReplyDeleteYour did a great job on these, I still have to get up my nerve to try. The ham and zucchini filling does look delicious. Your dogs even got a treat-now they will be expecting those crepes. Great post.
ReplyDeleteI have insomnia so can totally relate. It is no fun to not sleep well. But you turned a negative into a positive with these beauties. I love that you shared with your doggies. So sweet.
