These low carb jalapeno crepes are an amazing flavor adventure--a combination of sweet, savory AND spicy!
My love for crepes started in my sixth grade French class. Back then we were naive enough to believe that the French only ate croissants, baguettes and crepes...so I really wanted to go to Paris!
In the Spring of that year, our teacher brought in crepe pans for Crepe Day (which in my opinion should have been declared a national holiday) and we went to TOWN on those things.
...of course filling them with not so keto-friendly treats.
Thinking back on those yummy days (and watching the Food Network late one night) got me thinking about how I could make crepes that were both unique and low carb.
So....I've got a very fun, super exciting recipe to share with you today.
