Asparagus Crepes image

"I love serving these tender crepes with their light lemony sauce in spring," notes Carol Hemker of Phenix City, Alabama. "But my husband would eat them any time of year at all. In fact, it's the only way he'll eat asparagus! This dish is also lovely for luncheon or brunch."

1/2 cup 2% milk

I made these crepes for dinner tonight and they were a hit! My husband and I both loved them. The asparagus and cheese filling was so delicious and the crepes were cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making these again.

I've made these crepes several times now and they are always a hit! They are so easy to make and the filling is always delicious. I've used different types of cheese and vegetables in the filling and they have always turned out great.
