I remember the first time I tasted a crepe - it was in French class, the teacher had a food tasting day and made Crepe Suzette (minus the liqueur), we were in middle school. I didn't make my crepes from scratch I found these handy pre-made ones at Wegman's and made a light and tasty dessert, it's like a sundae without all the fat and sugar. This is how I made it, recipe below.
1 Package of Melissa's ready to use crepes (51 calories each). Washed blueberries, blackberries, raspberries and sliced strawberries.
Two teaspoons of raw sugar and orange zest, stir into the fruit.
Cover the berries and let them sit for two hours.
Build your crepe - lay flat on a plate, in the center fill with fruit, top with fat free/sugar free whipped topping, and a few sliced almonds. Fold it over, top with a dollop of whipped topping, drizzle with a little chocolate sauce (Hershey's Chocolate Syrup is fat free) sprinkle on a few more almonds, garnish with berries, dust with powdered sugar......
And dig in! It's delicious.
