We liked this and yes it made it very easy using frozen crepes (I had an eight pack which more than served 4 of us with sides). I used a mix of swiss brown mushrooms and white button mushrooms and 1 lb of chicken breast (which to my shame I overcooked) but the biggy was way too much cheese - I ended up using 5oz and would cut this back to 4oz (a Mainland sharp cheddar) and I added a good grind of pepper to mushroom, chicken and cheese mix. Yes one we will consider again but with change to suit us more, thank you Swede16tc, made for Bargain Basement.
