Ingredients
  • Basic Crepe Batter (12 crepes)
  • http://www.grouprecipes.com/54378/basic-crepe-recipe.html
  • Mushroom Filling
  • 5 C spinach, trimmed
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 2 shallots, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1/4 stick unsalted butter
  • 1 Tbl fresh thyme, finely chopped (or 1 tsp dried)
  • 4 1/2 C assorted fresh mushrooms, wiped and sliced
  • 4Tbl dry white wine
  • 1 1/4 C heavy cream
  • Salt and Pepper
  • Fresh Thyme for garnish

Directions
  1. Wash the spinach and pack into a saucepan while still wet
  2. Cover and cook over gentle heat for about 5 minutes until leaves are wilted
  3. Drain well, pressing against side of colander to extract as much moisture as possible; allow to cool and chop finely
  4. Prepare the crepe batter and stir in spinach; make the crepes and keep warm
  5. Take care not to overcook, these will be thicker and more difficult to fold
  6. Heat oil in a large frypan and gently saute the shallots and garlic for 3 minutes or until just softened
  7. Add the butter and melt to bubbling, then stir in the thyme and mushrooms and cook, stirring about 5 minutes or until brown and tender
  8. Stir in the wine and cream and bring to a simmer, heat through until piping hot
  9. Season, then fill the crepes with the mixture
  10. Garnish with thyme

Ohhhhhhhh Pat Im trying this one too:)


That's IT. I just put the picture of your spinach crepes w/mixed mushrooms as my desktop pic on my PC. Saying this sounds/looks fabulous doesn't cover it!

Thanks! Colleen


Awesome recipe!! This is one of my all-time favorites, as well as that of my guests. One quick cheat that I've used if you're in a hurry, is using frozen, chopped spinach (about half a bag). Thaw under cold water, squeeze out the moisture and then run a knife over it for a finer chop. If you have someone that isn't a fan of mushrooms, this white wine, cream sauce also works great with a slices of grilled chicken breast or shrimp.
