Why this works

Rich, energy-dense savoury crepe stack that is high in fat and saturated fat, with moderate protein and relatively low fibre.

Protein from eggs, milk, cheese and chorizo. Provides a useful amount of protein for satiety and muscle maintenance, though this comes alongside a high saturated fat load.

High saturated fat and sodium. Chorizo, cheese and mayonnaise contribute significant saturated fat and salt, so this is best kept as an occasional meal rather than an everyday choice.

Calcium and B12. Milk and cheese contribute calcium, while eggs, dairy and chorizo add vitamin B12; useful nutrients, but portion size matters.

Method

Whisk the eggs, milk and a pinch of salt in a bowl until smooth.
Heat a lightly oiled non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Pour in a small ladle of batter and swirl to form a thin crepe. Cook for 1-2 minutes each side until just set; repeat with the remaining batter.
Slice the chorizo sausages and fry in a dry pan for 3-4 minutes until the fat renders and the edges are lightly crisp.
Grate the cheese.
Mix the mayonnaise with the orange juice in a small bowl until smooth and spoonable.
Layer the crepes with the chorizo and cheese, folding or stacking as you go. Warm gently in the pan for 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese.
Serve the crepe stack drizzled with the orange-mayo sauce.
