Strawberry Crepes
We like to celebrate Valentine’s Day quietly, with a nice dinner in front of the fireplace. This year was no different, good food, good wine, nice fire, but what about a light but great dessert. As I wanted something I could make in advance, the crepes made perfect sense and was the right dessert. Light and delicious, these crepes added just the right touch to a perfect evening.
Delete the sugar in the recipe and make these crepes for a savory lunch filled with chicken or crab or whatever you wish.
