Make the filling: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt 3 tablespoons butter. Add the cremini and oyster mushrooms; cook, stirring, until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Add the tomatoes and spinach; cook, stirring, until the spinach is wilted, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat.

In another large skillet over medium heat, melt 1 teaspoon butter. Pour about 1/4 cup batter (depending on your pan size) into the hot skillet; immediately tilt and swirl to spread the batter evenly over the bottom. Cook until the center is set and the edges start to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle 1/4 of the filling down the middle of each crêpe, then sprinkle with 3 tablespoons Gruyère cheese. Fold the crêpe in thirds over the filling to form a triangle. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon Gruyère on top. Repeat to make the remaining crêpes, adding 1 teaspoon butter for each one.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products
easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.
The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.
Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.
For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
