How to Prepare Your Swiss Chard Crepes

Heat a skillet over medium heat.

Place all ingredients except chard in a blender or food processor. Mix until well blended. Gradually add the Swiss chard and pulse until fully incorporated.

Remove pan from heat. Pour 1/3 cup of batter into the pan, tipping from side to side in order to cover the bottom.

Place back on heat and allow to cook for one minute, or until the edges begin to curl in. Flip and cook an additional minute.

Place finished chard crepes in a warm oven or covered with a towel while the others cook.

Serve the savory crepes filled with re-fried beans, scrambled eggs or other fillings of your choice. This is a wonderful and flavorful alternative to a tortilla!

My family eats these often filled with eggs and cheese for a breakfast burrito or refried beans and salsa for a filling supper. The filling possibilities are endless, so use your imagination!

You can also add additional flour to make Swiss chard pancakes instead!
