Begin by peeling and grating the Yukon Gold potatoes using a medium-sized grater. Squeeze out any excess moisture from the potatoes using a clean kitchen towel.
In a large bowl, combine grated potatoes with egg whites, whole wheat flour, skim milk, and olive oil. Season with salt and black pepper, stirring until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly brush the surface with a small amount of olive oil if necessary.
Pour a ladleful of the potato batter onto the skillet, spreading it out evenly into a thin layer. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side until the edges start to crisp and the underside turns golden brown.
Flip the crepe carefully using a spatula and cook for another 2 minutes until both sides are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the crepe from the skillet and set aside. Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
For the filling, using the same skillet, add the fresh spinach and sauté for 2 minutes until wilted. Stir in the diced tomatoes and continue to cook until warmed through, about 1 minute.
Fill each crepe with a portion of the spinach-tomato mixture and sprinkle with low-sodium feta cheese before folding them into halves or quarters.
Serve the crepes warm and enjoy a heart-healthy meal packed with flavor and nutrients.
