The Ooiest of the Gooiest

So tonight I made the fattiest, tastiest, ooey, gooey goodness ever!! A broccoli & cheddar filling and/or topping that was melty deliciousness. I stuffed crepes with it (yeah, I'm on this crepe thing today. Tonight's crepes turned out to be WAY easier to make!!) I got the crepe recipe from Good Housekeeping and then devised the filling after seeing a recipe for savory crepes.

Crepe

3 lg eggs
2/3 c all-purpose flour
1 1/2 c unsweetened almond milk
2 T Earth Balance
1/2 t salt

1) Blend all ingredients until smooth (I used a hand mixer), scraping down sides of bowl. Cover bowl of batter and refrigerate for at least an hour to allow the flour to absorb the liquid. You can also let it refrigerate overnight.

2) Grease a medium size pan. When heated place about 1/4 of batter in the middle of the pan, pick up the pan and tilt/rotate to coat bottom of the pan with the batter. Cook crepe until the top is dry and the bottom is lightly browned. With spatula, flip the crepe and lightly brown the other side (about 30 seconds or so). Grease pan and repeat until all the batter is cooked.

Broccoli & Cheddar Deliciousness

1/2 T oil
1 Red Onion, diced
2 (10 oz) pkgs frozen broccoli, thawed (I actually used the Steamables kind and heated them in the microwave)
1 can Cream of Mushroom Soup w/ Roasted Garlic
1/4 t salt
1/4 t pepper
1 c water
2 T cornstarch
2 c cheddar

1) Mix cornstarch into water and set aside.

2) Heat oil in a nonstick skillet, add onion and cook onion until soft. Add water/cornstarch mix, broccoli, soup, salt, & pepper. Heat to boiling & boil for 1 minute. Turn off heat and add 1.5 c cheese. Mix until gooey.

3) Use in crepes or as a topping for a baked potato


If you're gonna stuff this into crepes, preheat an oven to 400º. Spread about 1/4 of the mix onto one half of the crepe and roll it up, placing it seam side down into a greased baking dish. Spoon any remaining broccoli mix on top on the crepes, sprinkle with remaining cheese and bake for about 15 minutes.
