My supervisor brought her leftovers for lunch the other day and it looked and tasted so good I had to have the recipe.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup celery, minced
1/2 cup carrot, minced
1 lb ground beef
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans italian-style diced tomatoes
1 1/2 cups marinara sauce
15 ounces ricotta cheese
2 cups italian cheese blend
1 egg
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
3/4 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
8 crepes (usually found in the produce dept)
Directions:
1. Heat oil over medium heat and add celery and carrot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add ground beef and salt and cook until no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Add tomatoes and marinara sauce and bring to a boil. Reduce to medium low and cook until thickened, about 45 minutes.
2. Preheat oven to 350. Combine ricotta, 1 1/2 cups cheese, egg, parsley and rosemary. Divide filling among crepes, using 1/3 cup for each, covering 1/4 of crepe about 1 inch from end. Roll up from filling end.
3. Spread 1/3 of sauce in a 12 x 9 baking dish. Top with 4 crepes, seam-side down. Top with 1/3 of sauce, then remaining crepes, sauce and 1/2 cup cheese. Cover with foil and bake until hot and bubbly, about 30 minutes.
