Instructions

Preparation: In a mixing bowl, combine milk, flour, and eggs. Whisk or blend until completely smooth. Let the batter rest for about 30 minutes to ensure better texture and consistency.
Cook Crepes: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with oil or butter. Pour a ladle of batter into the center of the skillet, swirling to evenly coat the surface. Cook the crepe for 1-2 minutes until lightly golden, then flip and cook the other side for an additional minute. Remove and set aside.
Prepare Filling: In a separate pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the spinach until just wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Add scrambled eggs and cheese, stirring constantly until the cheese is melted and the filling is warmed through, approximately 3-4 minutes.
Assemble Crepes: Place one cooked crepe on a plate, spoon some of the spinach, egg, and cheese filling into the center. Fold the crepe over the filling to enclose it. Serve warm, garnished with fresh diced tomatoes or fresh herbs, if desired.

Notes

For a vegan option, substitute eggs with silken tofu and use a plant-based cheese or omit cheese entirely.
You can use lactose-free milk or any plant-based milk as a substitute.
Try different greens like kale or arugula based on preference.
Crepes can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days; warm gently before serving.
Adjust the quantity of filling according to your taste or dietary needs.
