These mini delights are great party finger food that will please vegetarians and meat-eaters alike. The best part is that they come together in less than half an hour. These wontons feature a savory filling of onions, sweet red peppers, green chili peppers, salad greens, and shredded Mexican-style cheese. The sauce is a delightful combination of vegetable juice, fresh cilantro, scallions, and hot pepper sauce to serve alongside the wontons. Feel free to use as much or as little hot pepper sauce as you'd like depending on your heat tolerance. And if you prefer, you can substitute shredded cabbage for the salad greens.
