Wonton Tacos

      The result was a crispy shell bursting with flavor.  We made a meal out of them by serving them with rice and beans but I also think they would make an amazing game day snack.  The tacos are bite sized, easy to eat, and very filling.  This will definitely be on the menu a lot during football season.

Wonton Tacos (adapted from Stick a Fork In It)
16 wonton wrappers
¾ pound lean ground beef
2 t. cumin
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 . salt
½ red bell pepper, chopped
½ green bell pepper, chopped
1 tomato, chopped
⅓ c. Pepper Jack cheese
2 green onions, chopped
2 T. cilantro, finely chopped

shredded lettuce, salsa, sour cream

1.  Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.  Spray a mini muffin tin with cooking spray.

2.  Place the wonton wrappers in the mini muffins cups, gently folding the wrapper slightly so that they fit.  Set aside.

3.  In a large skillet cook the ground beef, cumin, garlic cloves, and salt.  Cook for 10 minutes or until heated through.

5.  Cook for 8-10 minutes or until the wontons are golden brown.  Remove from oven and top with lettuce, salsa, and sour cream.

Note:  Cooked, shredded chicken can be used in place of the ground beef in this recipe in order to make chicken wonton tacos.
