Easy but awesome – that describes this baked dish best of all. This unique creation features crepes with a Mexican filling.

A flavourful and succulent cottage cheese mixture joins hands with chunky uncooked salsa and mealy refried beans to make a fabulous filling for the crepes.

Simple ingredients are mixed and matched to give a classic, memorable flavour. The cheesy mouth-feel and herby aroma of the Crepes Mexicana are sure to etch a lasting memory. Serve this baked dish hot and fresh with a crunchy garnish of spring onion greens.

The spicy rajma stuffing wrapped in soft crepes and loaded with cheese tastes superb!! I even add cheese to my corn stuffing.
