Breakfast: Strawberry Banana Crepes

Strawberry Banana Crepes

SUBMITTED BY: Shelly Soule
"My family often has company over for breakfast or brunch, and these light fruit-topped crepes are our favorite. The sweet sensations are as fast to make as they are fabulous. You can cook the crepes the night before, refrigerate them with waxed paper in between, then fill and top them in the morning. Shelly Soule Las Vegas, Nevada"

Angello90:

Thanks for stopping by my blog. You have quite an eclectic taste, with your blogs on music, guitars & food.

I see you are from Ireland - I wonder if food and cooking shows are as popular there as they are in the states?

Best of luck with both of your blogs - I admire your ambition,
