I have been meaning to try this recipe for asparagus crepes with mushroom and dill sauce for a while now but the though of making crepes had been putting me off. I thought that crepes would be difficult to make but they turned out to be pretty easy. This recipe includes a lot of my favorites like asparagus, mushrooms, dill and lemon. I made sure to brown the mushrooms to give them more flavour. It turned out pretty good. It made a terrific light snack.

WOW, this looks amazing! It pretty much envelops all my favorite flavors, as well. I am admittedly a little scared of making crepes, too, but I might have to give them a whirl for this recipe.
