Hi Jane,
See below.
Phaed
Crepes Marquis
3 eggs
2/3 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 pound hamburger, browned, or 1 pound bacon, fried and crumbled
1/2 cup green pepper
1/2 cup chopped onion
21/2 ounces mushrooms
2 cups shredded Cracker Barrel Cheddar Cheese
1 can tomato soup
Combine eggs, flour, salt and milk and let stand 20 minutes.
For each crepe, pour 1/4 cup batter on lightly greased fry pan
and cook on one side only. Heat oven to 350°.
Drain hamburger or bacon. Cook onion and green pepper until
tender. Add hamburger or bacon and mushrooms and 11/2 cups cheese.
Fill each crepe with 1/4 cup mixture. Fold over as for tacos.
Place crepes in 12 by 8 inch baking dish. Top with tomato soup.
Then top with remaining cheese and place in oven until cheese melts.

Hello Carlos,
There are lots of recipes for spoon burgers, but the below recipe
is the only one that I could find with evaporated milk.
Phaed
Spoon Burgers
2 lb Hamburger
1 Onion; minced
1/4 cn Evaporated milk
9 oz Velveeta; cut-up
Brown hamburger with minced onion, and drain off fat. Add the
milk and cheese.
Simmer in a slow cooker on low until it thickens. Serve on
dollar sized rolls. This is great party food. Kids love them, too.
