Yay Mexican!

After browsing a few blogs I found one loaded with WW-friendly recipes that I was just dying to try. This was my second attempt at making something from One Tiny Pink Kitchen's blog and it was a hit! So tasty! I am bringing them in to work with me tomorrow for a co-workers birthday. I think they'd be great topped with cheese, shredded lettuce and salsa as appetizers but I can't have too much cheese :)

Yummy Empanadas

30 wonton wrappers
1 egg, beaten
1/2 lb extra lean hamburger
1/8 cup low fat cheddar cheese
1 tbsp tomato paste
1 tbsp taco seasoning
1/2 small onion, diced

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray cookie sheet with PAM. Brown hamburger and onions, drain. Add tomato paste and taco seasoning; then add cheese. Lay out wontons and fill with about 1 tbsp of filling per wonton. Wet the edges of the wonton with the egg and fold. Repeat! Bake about 8 minutes. (You will want to flip them over 1/2 way through so both sides are crispy. I forgot to do this)

3 empanadas = 2 WW points

I love empanadas!! Using the wonton wrappers makes these simple to put together, which is right up my alley!
