So insanely tasty!

So, I've crawled back onto the weight watchers wagon these days and I have been in search of tasty, "low point" foods. Here's my newest discovery for breakfast...

Blueberry Cream Blintzes

Crepe recipe:
2 eggs
1/2 C. soy milk
1/2 C. water
1 C. flour (if you used whole wheat, it would be fewer points!)
1/4 C. white sugar
1/4 t. salt

Mix wet ingredients together first. Whisk in the four and salt until mostly smooth.
Make small crepes (like skinny pancakes) in a pan using a spray of oil before each new crepe. I used a 1/3 C. measure to measure out the batter and made 7 crepes.

Filling recipe:
1/2 C. of part-skim ricotta
1 T. of honey
(you could add a teaspoon of vanilla too)
Mix together until smooth and the batter has a light butter color to it.

Assembly:
When crepes are finished, take about 1 T. of the ricotta mixture and smooth it down the middle of the crepe. Roll the crepe up like a burrito. Place the "burrito," seam side down on a medium skillet to toast for a minute or two. Remove from heat and plate. Top the crepes with wild blueberries (mine were frozen and I microwaved them until they were steamy and had some juice). You could make extra of the ricotta mixture and use a dollop of it on top of the crepes as well.

All this tasty goodness for just 3 points a Blintz!
