Jenn of Slim Shoppin' is always making the most amazing treats using wonton and eggroll wrappers. Over the past few months, Jennifer has introduced a lot of great ideas using the wrappers and always make its it look so easy. I vowed in my last comment to her that I would have to break down and buy some.
Then today, Jennifer's twin sister, Biz of Biggest Diabetic Loser posted an awesome wonton soup. I was sold and having bought them last grocery trip, had them on hand!
Ingredients:
1/2 medium green cabbage, separated
3 carrots, separated
3/4 cup ground meat (I used pork sausage)
2 tsp soy sauce
black pepper, to taste
To make the wonton filling, I put 3/4 cup of ground pork sausage in a bowl. Next, I added 1/2 of a finely minced carrot and 1/8th of a finely minced green cabbage. I added the soy sauce and sprinkling of pepper, mixing until everything was well incorporated.
Pick up the triangle and wet the bottom corners and fold them in over your thumb and press to seal. Viola! you have yourself a little wonton!
We got 42 out of the mixture and I decided to just cook them all so we'd have tons of leftovers for the week. Everybody into the pot!
Spooned into a big bowl with a little bit of broth, this was a really satisfying dinner! Besides the work of assembling the wontons, it was a snap to make and we have tons of leftovers!
