    List of Ingredients






    Ham and Asparagus Crepes

    3/4 cup all-purpose flour
    1 cup skim milk
    1 beaten egg
    1/8 salt
    1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
    nonstick spray coating

    1/2 cup shredded carrots
    1/2 cup sliced leeks
    1/2 cup water
    3/4 cup evaporated skim milk

    2 tablespoons cornstarch
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/8 teaspoon pepper
    2 tablespoons dry sherry
    1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

    24 asparagus spears
    12 slices of baked virginia ham

    For crepes,

    combine flour, milk, egg, thyme and salt. Beat until blended. Spray a 6-inch skillet with nonstick spray coating. Preheat skillet; then remove skillet from heat. Pour in 2 tablespoons batter. Lift and tilt skillet to spread batter. Return to heat; brown on one side only. Invert skillet over paper towels; remove crepe. Repeat with remaining batter.

    For sauce

    heat carrot, leek, and water to boiling. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 5 minutes. Do not drain. Combine milk, cornstarch, salt, and pepper. Stir into vegetable mixture. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Stir in sherry and 1/2 cup of the cheese until melted.

    For filling,

    combine ham and asparagus and 1 cup of the sauce. Spoon 2 spears and 1 ham strip onto unbrowned side of each crepe. Roll up. Arrange crepes, seam side down, in a 3-quart rectangular baking dish. Spoon remaining sauce over crepes. Cover; bake in a 375F oven 25 minutes or until hot. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake, uncovered, 5 minutes more.
