Ingredients

6 tablespoon Margarine
1/2 pound Mushrooms; sliced
1 cup Celery; diced
1/2 cup Yellow onions; diced
1/2 cup All-purpose flour
1 1/2 cup Chicken broth
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Lemon juice
16 ounce Salmon, canned
1 cup Sour cream
1 tablespoon Pimientos; chopped
1 tablespoon Fresh parsley; chopped
12 Crepes; *see note
1 cup Swiss cheese; shredded

Directions

1
Preheat the broiler and lightly grease a baking dish large enough to hold the crepes in a single layer.
2
Melt the margarine in a large skillet over medium heat.
3
Add the sliced mushrooms and saut for about 2 minutes until they begin to soften.
4
Stir in the diced onions and celery, cooking for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
5
Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir constantly for 1-2 minutes to cook out the raw flour taste.
6
Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, lemon juice, and Worcestershire sauce.
7
Simmer the mixture, stirring constantly, until it thickens into a gravy-like consistency.
8
Reduce heat to low and stir in the flaked salmon, sour cream, chopped pimientos, and parsley.
9
Heat the filling for 1 minute just until warmed through; do not boil.
10
Place one crepe flat on a work surface and spoon about 1/4 cup of the salmon filling down the center.
11
Fold the sides of the crepe over the filling and roll it up tightly.
12
Place the rolled crepe seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with remaining crepes and filling.
13
Sprinkle the shredded Swiss cheese evenly over the top of the crepes.
14
Broil for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and lightly browned.
15
Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
