Chicken-Mushroom Crepe Filling

Recipe #397256 | 30 min | 10 min prep | add private note

This recipe is from an old weight watchers cook book and though it has been a few years since I last made I will be doing tomorrow night as it is an easy tea and it can also be frozen to be used later. The original recipe uses 360 grams of cooked chicken but I usually use a small cooked chook bought from the deli. I have also upped the original recipe to feed 6, so I have 2 serves for freezing. I like Fluffy Buttermilk Pancakes for the crepes but would omit the sugar for this recipe.

  • 6 teaspoons butter (margarine was recommended)
