HAM, CHEESE & ASPARAGUS CREPES !
Authentic French Canadian crepe! I got this recipe several years ago when I had lunch in a small cafe in Quebec City. I had never tried a crepe before but it was delicious...black forest ham, lots of melted mozzarela cheese and asparagus tips...all of that wrapped in a very light crepe (or pancake) batter...and covered with maple syrup! This recipe has become a staple in my home over the years. Can double as a breakfast or a quick dinner.....and it tastes great no matter what time of day or night this is served. This was definitely a case of love at first bite!

Steps:
- Use a non-stick frying pan (or if you don't have one, a very lightly greased pan) and heat it to medium.(I like LARGE crepes -- so I used a large non-stick frying pan -- but you can use a smaller one for smaller size crepes).
- In a bowl, combine flour, milk, eggs, sugar, oil and salt. Beat until well blended (no lumps).
- When the pan is hot, add 3 - 4 tbsps. of batter. Swirl the batter until the bottom is coated and part way up the side of the pan.
- Add 1/4 of the mozzarela cheese, ham (I like to use shredded ham but you can cut up the ham into small pieces),asparagus tips.
- Cook until the edges of the crepe start to come away from the side of the pan and the bottom is golden brown (about 5 minutes).
- Using a spatula, slowly fold the crepe in half and repeat until all of your crepes are made. Should yield about 4 large.
- Serve immediately with a bit of butter on top and maple syrup -- pure comfort !

FLAMING PINEAPPLE CREPES
An absolutely spectacular dessert! Recipe found in an old cookbook called More Fun and Flavour With Spices. You can use the crepe recipe I'm including or use your own favourite recipe. The crepes can be made ahead of time and frozen. Simply reheat them in a slow oven (I would wrap them in foil to prevent hardening). The cooking time does not include the 1 hour stand time for the crepe batter.

CHICKEN AND ASPARAGUS CREPES
The crepes used in this recipe come from my mom's special recipe, and can be made ahead of time, refrigerated to assemble the next day. Cooked rotisserie chicken is a real time-saver when making this savory brunch specialty. -Mary Sloan, Brighton, Michigan

ASPARAGUS PROSCIUTTO CREPES WITH WHITE WINE BRIE SAUCE FOR TWO
I wanted to make a relatively easy appetizer; turned out it's filling enough to be a main course. I used Bergy's All Purpose Dinner crepes, but cut the recipe in half since there are only two of us. I added one more egg because I like eggy, runny crepes. It actually didn't take me very long. 67 minutes from start to finish (that includes eating time). I'm not great with sauces, but this one worked for me.

Steps:
- Cook the asparagus to your liking and set aside.
- Remove the rind from the brie and tear or cut into pieces; set aside.
- In a medium skillet, melt the 1/4 tablespoon butter; add the mushrooms; saute for about 4 minutes.
- Add the onion and continue to saute until the onion is translucent (about 3 more minutes). Set aside.
- In a medium sauce pan, melt the 3 tablespoons butter; add the flour, stirring until smooth. I cooked this mixture on medium-medium high for about two minutes trying to get it to brown, but no luck.
- Slowly add the chicken stock, one 1/2 cup at a time, stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
- Once the stock is incorporated, slowly stir in the white wine as you stir to avoid lumps.
- Add the garlic powder and ground black pepper.
- Turn heat up to medium high and stir so the mixture is very hot, but not boiling.
- Add the sour cream and stir briskly. The lumps will dissipate as you continue to cook the sauce.
- Stir in the brie pieces; turn heat down to medium low.
- Add in the parsley and sauteed mushrooms and onions.
- Continue to heat the sauce, stirring occasionally until all lumps are removed.
- At this point, you can either create your crepes or use your prepared crepes. I made my crepes while my sauce softly simmered.
- Place one slice of prosciutto on the crepe.
- Place four spears of asparagus on the crepe. Roll up the crepe.
- Top with the sauce.
- Serve and enjoy!
