Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup milk
• 2 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1 medium zucchini (thinly sliced)
• 1 medium yellow squash (thinly sliced)
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes (halved)
• 2 cups baby spinach
• 1 cup ricotta cheese
• 0.25 cup parmesan cheese (grated)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic (minced)
• 2 tablespoons fresh basil (chopped)
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
• 0 black pepper (to taste)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, milk, eggs, melted butter, and salt until smooth. Let the batter rest for at least 15 minutes.

Step 2

Heat a non-stick 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease it with a small amount of butter or oil.

Step 3

Pour 1/4 cup of the crepe batter into the skillet, tilting to coat the bottom evenly. Cook for about 1-2 minutes on one side until the edges lift slightly, then flip and cook for another 30 seconds. Repeat until all the batter is used (makes 6-8 crepes).

Step 4

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the zucchini, yellow squash, and cherry tomatoes to the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.

Step 6

Stir in the baby spinach and cook for an additional 2 minutes until wilted. Remove the skillet from heat. Season with black pepper.

Step 7

In a small bowl, mix the ricotta cheese and parmesan cheese together until combined. Add the chopped fresh basil and stir well.

Step 8

Lay a crepe flat on a plate. Spread 2-3 tablespoons of the ricotta mixture down the center of the crepe. Top with a spoonful of the cooked vegetable mixture.

Step 9

Fold the crepe over into a roll or fold it into quarters, forming a triangle. Repeat with the remaining crepes and filling.

Step 10

Garnish the crepes with chopped fresh parsley and additional parmesan cheese, if desired. Serve immediately.
