There like Really Thin Pancakes

Primal Crepes by Guest Chef VanSaghi!

 Our good friend Justin VanSaghi (or Saghi as he is known around here) has graced us with his presence and brought a big winter storm with him. What goes better with old friends and a winter wonderland? You guessed it, crepes. A connoisseur of creating this dainty morsel using various types of flours, he decided to tackle the Primal crepe using Almond flour. 

Saghi is no sucker when it comes to a challenge, as his commitment to the Army is the past couple of years has given him the courage to whip up some culinary delights for our unconventional palate.
We are so happy Saghi is here because these were memorable crepes and I have had my fair share in the land of Crepes; France. 
Thank you Saghi for visiting us before your deployment, we cannot wait to see you when you get back! Big Love!!
