This Crepes Sandwich is my own creation of a twist on traditional crepes, where the crepe will act as the wrap or bread that will enclose the cheese and ham.
It will combine together the thin and soft texture of the crepe with the portable sandwich style. It is an ideal meal for breakfast as it is full nutrients to keep you full for longer.
This is an awesome meal idea for those who are picky eaters, or a quick meal for those who have run out of time to make a real meal.
The veggies that are combined with the batter mixture will enhance the nutritional value of the crepes by adding some nutrients to the crepes. If you love savory food, then this Kenyan Famous Samosas is a great recipe for you.
