In a blender, combine cooked wild rice, flour, milk, eggs, scallions, and salt for the crepe batter. Blend until smooth and let the batter rest for 15 minutes.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter. Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet, swirling to coat the bottom evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges lift easily, then flip and cook for another minute. Repeat with the remaining batter and set crepes aside.
Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add sliced mushrooms and cook for 5-7 minutes until softened and golden. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Stir in heavy cream and Parmesan cheese to the mushrooms. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and set the filling aside.
In a blender, combine roasted red bell peppers, vegetable broth, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth. Pour the mixture into a saucepan and simmer over low heat for 5 minutes to warm through and slightly thicken.
To assemble, spoon about 2 tablespoons of the mushroom filling into the center of each crepe and fold them into quarters or roll them up.
Place the filled crepes on a plate and drizzle with the warm red pepper sauce. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
