More elegant than casseroles, faster than soup, when you have frozen crepes on hand they are a wonderful way to use up little bits and pieces of leftover ingredients from your fridge. Try a few of these recipes and in no time you'll be cleaning out your own fridge devising new crepe recipes.
Vegetarians: until I'm able to develop a separate crepe and omelette menu I hope you won't mind substituting soy products for the meat called for in these recipes.

If using immediately keep the plate covered with a towel to keep the crepes warm.
