Dole Heart Salad Recipe

I made this, together with my Husband, and it came together so quickly. You can definitely make homemade crepes, but I like keeping it simple during the weeknights. Store-bought tasted great and the we kept the focus on the stuffing ingredients. I’m all about easy and healthy meals mid week!

I've never combined banana with shrimp in a recipe! Such an interesting idea! And I really love the addition of ginger!

I love ginger dressing so I will try any recipe that has it as part of its ingredient list. I haven't made crepes in so long so this is a perfect excuse to try some again.
