Do you wake up some morning's with your mouth craving a favorite breakfast comfort food? Do you then find yourself haunted by the thought of those flavors until you can finally sink your teeth into that first heavenly bite?

Every six months or so my food cravings get the best of me; I'm unable to control my wish for a steaming hot Chili Cheese Omelette, and a big plate of Strawberry Roll Ups. I drive 2 hours just to satiate my cravings at my favorite breakfast joint, Wades Pancake House in my hometown of Colorado Springs, CO.  

Another one of my favorite morning dishes and today's featured recipe are savory-sweet, Blueberry Cheese Blintzes!

Instructions
 

For the blintzes

  • Remove from heat, repeat with remaining batter, stack crepes, set aside until ready to fill (crepes can be covered and frozen up to one month)

For the filling

  • Combine all ingredients in a large bowl, stir with a spoon until smooth, batter will be a bit lumpy form the cottage cheese, if you prefer a creamier filling, puree cottage cheese

For the topping

  • Spoon jam/jelly into a microwave safe bowl, in 30 second intervals heat until melted, stirring between intervals

To assemble

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Spoon 3 tablespoons of filling in the center of each crepe.

Notes

To make a low carbohydrate version: use rice or soy flour for the crepes, substitute sugar with Stevia or Splenda, use sugar free jam/jelly
