Meatball and Tomato Sauce Filling (for crepes)
Printable Recipe
1 lb ground beef
1/2 onion, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup chopped herbs, (basil, oregano, parsley) – we used dried and went with 1 tsp basil, 1 tsp oregano, and 1 tbsp parsley)
1/4 cup breadcrumbs (we kind of forgot this in the mixture!)
1 large egg
1 cup mozzarella cheese
1 jar of your favorite tomato pasta sauce
Preheat oven to 355 degrees. In large bowl, mix together beef, onion, garlic, herbs, breadcrumbs, and egg until combined. Add a generous pinch of salt and pepper.
Using an ice cream scoop, portion out the meatballs into round balls. Bake meatballs until cooked through (15-20 minutes).
Place two meatballs in a line down the middle of the crepe (see recipe below), drizzle a little pasta sauce on top of the meatballs, roll the crepe and top with more mozzarella cheese and sauce.
Savory Crepe Dough
3/4 cup cornmeal
1/4 cup flour
3 large eggs
1 cup milk
salt and pepper
Mix dry ingredients. Combine wet and dry ingredients in a food processor until smooth. (we did this the old fashioned way – by hand with a whisk!).
Spray small non stick pan with cooking spray. Pour enough batter to make a thin layer when the pan is swirled. Cook for minute on each side, or until golden brown. Put on a plate to cool until they are ready to be filled.

I've never had crapes with meat before. What a great idea, and that looks amazing.
Nice job Austin these look fabulous Shelby! Delcious!
Who needs pasta when you can just have crepes, especially when someone else makes them! Great photos!
What an interesting take on a savory crepe. Sounds delicious!
These were fabulous, We made them with Turkey, with rosemary and sage and I fried garlic slices. YUM! Great idea and I loved your cook.
Ooo meat crepes?!? I've seen breakfast crepes that were savory, but never meatballs. Very cool! I bet these are delicious.
that sounds so yummy! I think my mom has a savory crepe recipe too…I'll have to dig it up
Whoop whoop and cooking with kids (even big kids) is my favorite thing to do! Just love the idea of these… EXCELLENT post!
This. Turned. Out. Awesome.
I served it with a dollop of sour cream, sliced scallions, and a side of creamy herbed mash. A family hit!!!!
Thank you:)
