Instructions

  1. Prepare the crepe batter by whisking together eggs, flour, milk, and salt in a large bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

  6. Heat a non stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Pour in 1/4 cup of crepe batter, swirling the pan to create a thin, even layer. Cook until lightly browned on one side, then flip and cook the other side briefly. Remove from pan and keep warm. Repeat until all crepes are made.
  7. Fill each crepe with the feta spinach mixture, fold in half or roll up.
  8. Plate the filled crepes on individual dishes, spooning tomato sauce over the top. Garnish with remaining fresh basil.
