These whole wheat crepes make for a delicious savory breakfast or lunch, providing a good balance of whole grains, protein and nonstarchy vegetables.

Ingredients

Crepes 2 eggs 2/3 cup nonfat milk 1/2 cup water 1 tablespoon olive oil 1/4 teaspoon salt (optional) 1 cup whole wheat flour Cooking spray Filling 4 cups broccoli florets Cooking spray 1/2 small onion, small dice 8 slices deli ham (1/2 ounce each), diced 4 egg whites 1/4 cup fat-free half and half 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper 1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Instructions

Whisk all the crepe ingredients together in a large bowl except for the cooking spray. Blend the mixture in a blender or with an immersion blender. Let the crepe batter rest at room temperature for 20 minutes. Add cooking spray to a 10-inch nonstick sauté pan over medium heat. Let the pan heat until a drop of water sizzles in the bottom of the pan. Pour 1/4 cup of the crepe batter to thinly coat the bottom of the pan. Let the crepe cook until the edges begin to brown. Using a spatula, flip the crepe and continue to cook for another minute. Slide the crepe on to a plate and continue this process to make 8 crepes. Steam the broccoli florets in the microwave or in a sauce pan in an inch of water. Steam until the florets are fork tender. Add cooking spray to a nonstick sauté pan over medium-high heat. Sauté the onion and ham until the onion is soft and beginning to caramelize. Add the steamed broccoli, and using a spatula, break the broccoli up into small pieces, stirring it with the ham and onions. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg whites, fat-free half and half, and pepper. Add the mixture and the Parmesan cheese to the vegetables and stir to scramble. Fill and roll each crepe with ½ cup egg and vegetable scramble. Chef Tip: The scramble may leave behind a little liquid from steaming the broccoli. Try to leave it behind when scooping out the scramble to fill the crepes. Choices: 1½ Starch, 1 Vegetable, 2 Lean Protein, 1 Fat
