Meatfree Monday #3 Strawberry Crepes

     Slowly but surely, more people are linking up to Meatfree Mondays. The more people that link up, the bigger my "to try" folder becomes.
     This week, for lack of time, I'm posting a breakfast for dinner idea. Sometimes, I find recipes, or have ideas for breakfast foods, but I just don't have time in the morning to make them. In those cases, we eat breakfast for dinner.

     These crepes, are so good. They had just the right texture and complimented the sweet ricotta filling perfectly.  I actually made them again and used blueberries instead of strawberries. I can't decide which one I like better! A couple of things I like about this recipe is that you can make these the night before if you did want to make them for breakfast, and you can freeze the extras for a super quick breakfast (or dinner) the next time around. I don't know about you, but I don't need 18 crepes to fill me up!
     If you follow my blog, you may have noticed that I've had a lot of strawberry recipes recently. We've been using up the almost five pounds of u-pick strawberries we got at the local berry farm. I think I have one more new recipe to post after this one, so stay tuned for that. It's a delicious honey sweetened strawberry freezer jam! It's so much better than store bought jam!
