Ham and Cheese Crepes

Your favorite crepe recipe or

2 eggs
1 c. milk
1/4 tsp salt
1 c. flour
2 Tbsp butter, melted

Beat the eggs well, then beat in the milk, salt, flour and butter. Cover and let stand for at least 30 minutes(i haven't found this step entirely necessary). Heat a 7 inch skillet or crepe pan until moderately hot then film it with butter or shortening. Use a ladle or small cup and pour in several tablespoons full of batter then quickly tilt the pant about so that the batter spreads evenly in the thinnest possible layer. Cook for a few more minutes until the bottom is lightly browned and the edges are easy to lift from the pan. Flip it and cook the second side for a few minutes. Remove and repeat.

1 package deli ham(thinly sliced)
2-3 cups sharp cheddar, shredded
1 pckg cream cheese
about 4 sticks green onion, chopped(can easily be substituted with minced onion)
1ish Tbsp. dijon mustard
1/4 tsp. paprika
dash or two of cayenne pepper
parsley flakes(opt.)

Mix all the ingredients until well incorporated aside from ham and cheese. Assemble the crepes by laying open the spotty side of the crepe. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the majority surface of the crepe. Place two thin slices of of ham spanning the length of the crepe. Sprinkle on the cheese and roll up the crepe. Repeat until all the crepes are rolled. Place on a baking sheet and sprinkle the tops with cheese(as much as you'd like). Cook at 350* for 10-15 minutes or until all the cheese is melted.
