Savory Mushroom, Spinach & Cheese Crepes image

Out of my favorite book by Marie Simmons, Pancakes A to Z. Her husband John's recipe for a savory crepe filling. Packed with lots of fresh ingredients and can be made ahead & heated just before serving, making these crepes a perfect dish for company or a quick evening meal. Posted for Zaar World Tour 5. Prep time is an estimate & does not include making homemade crepes.

Time 48m

Yield 12 crepes, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

12 (6 inch) crepes (pre-made or homemade with one of the crepe recipes posted on Zaar)
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 1/4 lbs mushrooms, rinsed, trimmed and thinly sliced (about 8 cups of any combination of white button, shiitake, oyster, portobello, chanterelles or whate)
1/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leave
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
salt & pepper, to taste
1 (10 ounce) package fresh spinach, washed, stemmed & coarsely chopped
5 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • Make crepes if using homemade & set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet until hot enough to sizzle a slice of mushroom. Add the mushrooms all at once and cook, stirring, over medium-high heat until they begin to brown. About 10 minutes.
  • Stir in the parsley, thyme, garlic, salt & pepper. Cook for 1 minute.
  • Reduce heat to medium and stir in the spinach. Cover & cook until just wilted, about 2 minutes.
  • Uncover & add the goat cheese, stirring until melted.
  • Spoon mixture down the center of each crepe. Roll up crepes and arrange side by side in a 13x9 baking dish. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
  • Cover pan with foil and heat until cheese melts, about 15 minutes.
  • Serve warm.
