A Chicken soup with water chestnuts
Fruit Float (This is made with homemade gelatin.)
Little wonton "pillows"
I didn't want to go to the fuss of making meat-stuffed wontons; so I invented a recipe.
This isn't exactly how I made these; but I will try to post a usable version here.
These would be good assembled a day ahead of time and baked off the next day as a side for a breakfast, brunch, or as an appetizer.
Wonton "Pillows"
>preheat oven to 375 F.
(I'm sure these could be fried in oil as well.)
>Ingredients
1 package wonton wrappers
16 oz. cream cheese (You might want to let it soften a bit.)
1/4-1/3 cup honey
1/4-1/3 cup zante currants or raisins
a small cup of water
>Assembly
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mix together the cream cheese, honey, and dried fruit by hand or with an electric mixer.
Put a heaping teaspoon of filling in the center of a wonton wrapper and, using a pastry brush or your fingers, brush water around the edges of the wrapper. Seal into a triangle with your fingers (a turnover shape). Then, brush the pointed edges with water and fold into an envelope shape.
Bake at 375 F. for 15 minutes. Makes a whole package of wonton skins, over 2 dozen, but i'm not sure how many. :)
Ok, I am officially hungry. That looks so good! Especially the soup and the "Pillows".
