I agree with the previous user in that I am surprised there aren't more reviews for this recipe! My husband and I enjoyed these. Couldn't find creme fraiche (and didn't feel like making it) so I used heavy cream instead. Very flavorful and easy to prepare. Will definitely make again.
Creamy Chicken and Mushroom Crepes
Buy a rotisserie chicken from the deli counter, and use the breast meat for this recipe. You'll have some leftover chicken for another meal later in the week. If you can't find baby portobello mushrooms, use cremini mushrooms. Look for packaged crepes in the produce aisle.
