Vegan Épinards en Surprise

[Vegan Spinach Hidden under a Giant Crêpe]


...our grocery store has been having an insane sale on Wild Harvest Organic Spinach (99¢)...so we've been eating lots of spinach...YUM!

...First you'll need some Épinards à la Crème...and some swiss cheese (we used Daiya Mozzarella style...

...and then you'll need to make a big CRÊPE...

...and that's pretty much it...

...you just hide the Spinach under the big ole crepe...

...slice it like a cake...

...and SURPRISE!...

...there's spinach inside...

This was a lot like the Gâteau de Crêpes à la Florentine...only a lot simpler...and without the mushrooms...but still really creamy and good...
