CREAM CHEESE CREPES WITH BLUEBERRY SAUCE
If desired use the lower carb options HERE or HERE. I love my low-carb crepes, however, the other two options are excellent as well, if you want an ultra low-carb crepe feast. This would make a special breakfast - so delicious and blueberries are a fantastic anti-oxidant besides other wonderful health benefits. Making one simple change to your diet by adding blueberries could have a significant impact on cardiovascular health, cancer prevention, and brain power. In addition to polyphenols, blueberries are an excellent source of vitamins K and C, manganese, and fiber. I think I'm a bit weird as I like any of these crepes way more than almost any high-carb bread that I can remember. I love them buttered with my Healthy Butter and low-sugar preserves. Yum and double yum!!

For example, 3/4 cup sugar sweetness (not 3/4 cup of liquid) using my bottle of EZ-Sweetz sucralose (whether the smaller one 0.5 oz of the bigger bottle 2 oz) would be 18 or 36 drops respectively. Here is an article about the sweeteners: Part 1. There is another article here: Part 2

Helpful Hints: My hubby cannot tolerate xanthan gum these days, so I will be trying my crepes without that in the future. Hopefully they are still just as flexible.
