Wonton Cups

All week, I've been looking forward to the weekend. Not just because it's the weekend, but because I have been planning to make homemade egg rolls. And finding this awesome orange chicken recipe yesterday sealed the deal for Chinese take-out-made-in night.

What does this have to do with wonton cups, you ask? Well, after making up all the egg rolls, I had quite a bit of filling left over. While the filling is certainly delicious on its own, I wanted some sort of cute vessel in which to present them. Enter wonton wrappers.

















This could possibly be the easiest recipe in the world, and a great base for many cute appetizers. Here, I just brushed the wonton wrappers on both sides with canola oil, and gently pressed them into a cupcake pan. Bake in a preheated 375 degree F oven for 5 minutes. Let cool slightly before removing. Spoon in desired filling; in my case, an Asian-inspired salad.

I'm already dreaming of many other uses for these cups. A light coating of cinnamon and sugar, and you have a dessert cup... Ready to be filled with chocolate mousse or a small scoop of ice cream. Or, sprinkle with garlic and taco seasoning before adding some taco salad. The possibilities are endless!
