Very good and easy to make. Store bought crepes are fine, but they break very easily. I suggest home-made crepes. Slight modifications to the ingredient amounts are fine.

This recipe produces exceptionally delicious crepes! The only trouble is that the recipe says it is easy and takes only a few minutes. That is simply not true. I spent about two hours preparing, considering that I had to cook the chicken, bone it, cut it up, chop onion, shred two cheeses, prepare and parboil the asparagus, butter the pans, fill the crepes, etc. And this does not include making the crepes. I bought those at the market!
