Ham & Cheese Crepes

Found on Weelicious

(Makes 14 Crepes)

Weelicious Crepe Recipe
1 Cup Ham, finely chopped
1 Cup Cheddar Cheese, grated

1. Place the crepe in a dry saute pan over low to medium heat.
2. Place about 2 tbsps of ham and cheese (1 tbsp of each) on one half of the crepe. Fold the other half of the crepe over the ham and cheese and heat for 1 minute until the cheese melts.
3. Fold the crepe in half again, making a triangle and serve.

*This recipe makes 14 crepes. I like to use 1/2 for the sandwiches and freeze the others. Place a piece of parchment between each crepe to prevent sticking and put the stack into a large Ziploc freezer bag.
