Ingredients

• 1 cup Whole wheat flour
• 2 large Eggs
• 1.5 cups Skim milk
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 4 cups Fresh spinach
• 2 cups Mushrooms, sliced
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 0.25 teaspoons Red pepper flakes
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 0.5 cup Low-fat feta cheese, crumbled
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, eggs, skim milk, olive oil, and salt until smooth. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes.

Step 2

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup of the crepe batter into the skillet and swirl to evenly coat the bottom.

Step 3

Cook for about 2 minutes until the edges lift slightly, then flip and cook for another minute. Repeat with the remaining batter. Set crepes aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and heat over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they start to release moisture and turn golden brown, about 5 minutes.

Step 6

Add fresh spinach, red pepper flakes, black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Stir and cook until the spinach is wilted, about 3 minutes.

Step 7

Stir in the lemon juice and crumbled feta cheese. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to combine the flavors.

Step 8

Place a cooked crepe on a plate and spoon about 1/4 of the spinach and mushroom mixture into the center of the crepe.

Step 9

Fold the crepe over the filling. Repeat with the remaining crepes and filling.

Step 10

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve warm.
