Photo has no spinach nor mushroom on it. Crapes can be rolled too. It's not a complicated as it looks...The spinach part is only an additional filling and needs not to be made...they're two cheese sauces to choose from also. One is more economical than the other and have different flavors. Regatta etc. cheeses or dairy could be sub.if you don't have the one in the recipes.
