Prepare Crêpes:
- Start by preparing the pancake mix according to the package directions. Add a small amount of extra milk to achieve a thinner batter consistency.
- Heat a non-stick frypan over medium heat and coat it with cooking spray.
- Spoon 1/4 cup (60 mL) of the batter into the pan, allowing it to spread to about 6 inches (15 cm) in diameter.
- Cook the batter on both sides until it turns light golden. Once cooked, remove it from the pan and set it aside, keeping it warm.
- Repeat this process to make a total of 8 crêpes.
-
Prepare Filling:
- In a separate saucepan, combine the canned soup with tuna, green onion, celery, and milk.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally.
- Once it reaches a boil, reduce the heat and let it simmer for 5 minutes.
-
Assemble Crepes:
- Spoon 1/4 cup (60 mL) of the prepared filling along the middle of each crêpe.
- Roll the crêpes to cover the filling, creating neat bundles of deliciousness.
-
Serve:
- Sprinkle grated parmesan cheese and paprika on top of the assembled crepes for an extra burst of flavor.
- Serve the tuna crepes warm and enjoy a delightful meal bursting with savory goodness.
Serving Suggestions:
- Pair these tuna crepes with a fresh green salad or steamed vegetables for a complete and balanced meal.
- For an extra touch of indulgence, drizzle some hollandaise sauce over the crepes before serving.
Tips:
- To save time, you can prepare the crêpes in advance and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to use.
- Feel free to customize the filling by adding your favorite ingredients such as diced bell peppers, mushrooms, or spinach.
- If you prefer a crispier texture, you can briefly bake the assembled crepes in the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
