Cheesy Broccoli Crepes Recipe

These tender crepes are filled with a rich, creamy broccoli and cheese mixture and topped with bubbly melted cheese.

The amount of garlic in this recipe may seem like a lot, but boiled garlic has a very mild flavour. Some chopped, cooked chicken would be a delicious addition to the filling.

Serves 4 (about 2 crepes each).

Crepes
You will need about 8 crepes. We used this crepe recipe.

Filling
5-6 medium cloves garlic
300g broccoli florets (fresh or frozen)
120g cream cheese, softened
80g Parmesan cheese, grated
50g (2 1/2 tablespoons) mayonnaise
2 tablespoons (40ml) thickened cream (35 percent fat)
3 teaspoons (15ml) lemon juice
Salt and pepper to taste

Topping
140g grated tasty cheddar cheese
84ml (1/3 cup) cream

Peel and halve garlic cloves. Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil. Add broccoli and garlic and boil until broccoli is just tender. Drain broccoli and garlic and set aside to cool.

Combine cream cheese, Parmesan, mayonnaise, cream, lemon juice, boiled garlic, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Use a fork to mash the ingredients together to form a paste. Add roughly chopped cooked broccoli and stir gently until combined.

Divide broccoli filling between crepes and roll up. Place crepes seam side down in a baking dish. Sprinkle with grated tasty cheese and drizzle with cream. Bake at 210 degrees Celsius (190 degrees Celsius fan-forced) until cheese is bubbly and golden. We serve our crepes with salad. © www.exclusivelyfood.com.au
