This this this! This recipe is fantastic. It came together so quickly and got such rave reviews that this will now be a go-to in my I-want-to-look-like-a-rockstar-but-I-don’t-want-to-have-to-work-too-hard arsenal. Yeahhhh. Because that is just the thing this time of year – it’s spring! We want to gather, we want to come out of hiding and have all the fun. Showers, picnics, BBQs, Bunco night, more showers (doesn’t like everyone get married in the spring? …although, I got married in December, so I guess that doesn’t work). But you know what I mean – we need recipes for company, we want them to fit the season, and we want them to be fabulous. Easy, and fabulous. And quick.

So with that in mind, I give you my new crepe. Voila. Comme ca.

So what did I do here ..I made a lovely, DELICIOUS cheesy sauce to start. Cheeeeese. So good. This is a basic cheese sauce – we start with a roux, then milk to make a bechamel. Then just a couple ingredients required for flavor, and 2 cuppers of cheese. I used white cheddar because 1) it is yummy, and 2) I wanted to keep the sauce white. Just seemed more elegant to me that way.

After we make the sauce, then we just add ham and peas to it. Peas scream spring don’t they? So including them was pretty obvious. And for ham, I went with deli ham. Whyyy???? You ask? ..well, because super skinny deli meat works here because of the super skinny crepes and it keeps the whole thing all delicate. It just works. Trust. ?

The deli meat I used, Castle Wood Reserve®, was a hit with my family. They loved the flavor. While I was using half the package in the recipe, they sat there munching on the rest of the package right then and there while I was cooking. Castle Wood Reserve® is a new-to-me line of deli meats. I found it in the deli section at Walmart, and they have no binders or MSG or such. So you can use it as almost an easy hack in a recipe like these crepes because it is deli meat, or put it right out there with cheeses, olives, and such for a charcuterie board.

Moving on, once our filling is ready, we roll it up enchilada-like in the crepes. Now, sometimes I make crepes, and I linked my recipe in the instructions below. But sometimes, oftentimes, I don’t have that time so I buy them. Yes, you can get them already made – I find them in the produce section. No shame, right?

Then we just bake our crepes, make a little Dijon cream sauce for topping and We. Are. Done. ..See? Totally easy. And really truly delicious.

So that’s it folks! An elegant but EASY Ham, Peas, and Cheese Crepes recipe, filled with ham, peas, and cheesy cheese. An impressive spring go-to for any occasion.
