Why is it that crepes just feel a little fancy for dinner? These ones were made on my old Braun Electric Crepe Maker but store bought will work just fine. The filling is a savory mix of chicken, spinach and cheese in a cream sauce. A glass of chilled white wine compliments perfectly!
Ingredients:
6 - 7" crepes
1 medium boneless chicken breast
1 cup packed baby spinach leaves
2-4 tbsps 10% cream
1/2 cup parmesan
1 cup shredded mozzarella, divided
1/4 cup butter
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 - 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
Preheat oven to 350°F. Cut chicken into bite-size pieces. Melt butter in frying pan on medium heat and cook chicken 5-6 minutes. Add spinach for 2 minutes to wilt. Then add the seasonings, parmesan, cream and 1/2 of the mozzarella. Stir to melt the cheese. Remove from heat. Place the crepes on a work surface and divide the filling onto each. Roll up and place seam side down in a buttered baking dish. Top with remaining mozzarella and bake at 350°F for 15 minutes. Serves 2-3
Here's a garlicky and salty, quick and simple side.
This is a super simple old fashioned dessert. Warm blueberry peach cobbler with a scoop of vanilla ice cream is the perfect summertime indulgence!
When you haven't got anything defrosted, just grab a frozen boneless pork loin chop straight from the freezer and pop it in the air fryer. Comes out nicely grilled!
1 frozen boneless pork loin chop
Olive oil
Seasoning of your choice
I used Old Bay, garlic powder and dry oregano
Preheat air fryer to 400°F for 5 minutes. Then place the chop in the basket and fry 5 minutes. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with your fave seasoning and return to the air fryer for another 1-4 minutes depending on the thickness of your particular piece of meat. The internal temperature should read 145°F
