These wontons are a baked version of the popular Chinese appetizer but with an Italian twist – they’re filled with ricotta cheese, pesto and jarred roasted peppers.
Ingredients
Olive oil cooking spray
4 spray(s)
Part skim ricotta cheese
½ cup(s)
Reduced-fat pesto sauce
3 Tbsp
Roasted red peppers (packed in water)
3 Tbsp
Shredded part skim mozzarella cheese
2 Tbsp
Wonton wrapper
16 item(s)
Store-bought marinara sauce
1 cup(s)
Instructions
1
Preheat oven to 425°F. Coat a large baking sheet with a good amount of cooking spray.
2
In a medium bowl, combine ricotta, pesto, peppers and mozzarella.
3
Place wonton wrappers on prepared baking sheet so wontons become saturated with oil. Place 1 tablespoon ricotta mixture onto center of each wrapper. Dip a finger into water and use it to moisten edges of wrapper; fold over one corner of wrapper to make a triangle and press sides together to create a seal.
4
Bake until wontons are golden brown on edges and dough is just cooked through, about 5 to 7 minutes. Serve with marinara sauce for dipping. Yields 1 wonton and 1 tablespoon sauce per serving.
