    1 c Unbleached white flour
    1/2 c Whole wheat pastry flour
    1 3/4 c Milk
    2 tb Butter; melted
    3 tb Butter; up to 4 tb

    MMMMM--------------------------FILLING-------------------------------
    2 tb Olive oil
    1 c Onion (2 sm); finely diced
    4 cl Garlic; minced
    3 c Eggplant (1 sm);
    - finely diced
    1 ts Leaf thyme
    1 ts Basil
    2 md Ripe tomatoes
    4 oz Water chestnuts (1/2 can);
    - sliced
    1/4 ts Salt
    Black pepper;
    - freshly ground, to taste
    8 Crepes
    2 Ripe avocados
    1/2 Lemon
    2 c Cheddar cheese; grated
    1 c Sour cream

    Crepes:

    In a medium-sized bowl, whip eggs until light, then add honey, salt,
    and flours. Stir in well. Slowly add milk, 1/4 cup at a time. When
    well mixed, add melted butter. Allow batter to sit at room
    temperature 2 hours if possible. If it sits overnight, refrigerate it
    and add a bit more milk to thin the batter. The next day allow to sit
    at room temperature for an hour before using.

    To cook, preheat a 10" skillet over medium heat. Add 1/2 tb butter and
    swirl it around in the pan. Add a bit less than 1/4 cup of batter to
    pan, then quickly swirl pan around so that batter covers the bottom
    of pan thinly. If too much batter is poured in, try to pour excess
    batter back into larger bowl. Cook 1 to 2 minutes, until lightly
    golden in color, then flip crepe over with a spatula, cook 1 minute
    more, and remove from heat. Add a bit more butter to pan and repeat
    process until all batter is used up. Stack cooked crepes on top of
    one another and allow to cool. BE sure to use a small amount of
    batter or crepes will be too thick.

    Filling:

    Heat the oil in a 10" skillet and sauté onions, garlic, eggplant,
    thyme, and basil over medium heat until tender and browned. Don't
    overcook.

    Dice the tomatoes and combine with the sliced water chestnuts in a
    medium-sized bowl. Add sautéed vegetables, salt, and pepper. Stir.

    Preheat oven to 375°F. Lay out crepes and put 1/2 cup vegetable
    mixture in a line down the center of each crepe. Then peel and slice
    avocados, squeeze lemon over them, and spread 4 to 6 avocado slices
    over the vegetables on each crepe. Add 1/4 cup cheese per crepe. Roll
    up the crepes and place seam side down in a shallow oiled baking pan.
    Bake 10 minutes. Serve with a dollop of sourc cream on top.
