savory buckwheat & spinach crepes // creamy tahini-chicken salad filling


these crepes have a lovely earthy flavor and are perfect to fill with just about anything. it is a blender batter-which makes it easy to whip up for a quick lunch or dinner!


I love the flavor of tahini and tart yogurt together. paired with some hearty protein & sweet fruit, the flavors all pop! 
to make the filling vegetarian, simply replace the shredded chicken with sprouted & cooked chickpeas.
