September 15, 2017

Recipe

Broccoli is a good source of vitamins and fiber. Add sliced turkey and roll into a crepe for a quick meal.

Serves 4

Cooked broccoli is a good source of vitamins A and C, folate, potassium, calcium, and fiber. Here it's paired with sliced turkey breast and rolled into a crepe for a quick lunch or light supper.

Heat the oven to 350 F. Lightly coat a baking dish with cooking spray.

In a pot fitted with a steamer basket, bring 1 inch of water to a boil. Add the broccoli. Cover and steam until tender-crisp, about 5 to 7 minutes.

Heat the crepes in the microwave for 30 seconds to 1 minute, or according to package directions. Place 1/4 of the turkey, 1/4 cup steamed broccoli and 2 tablespoons cheese on each crepe. Roll up and place seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Bake until the cheese melts, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

2 cups chopped broccoli
4 prepackaged crepes, 8 inches each
4 ounces reduced-sodium turkey breast, sliced
1/2 cup finely shredded reduced-fat colby jack cheese
