Mindy's Notes:

We were having tacos for dinner, had won tons in the fridge, thought why not? It was a big hit! Nice way to change up taco night! Can be served as a meal with refried beans, mexican rice. Or great as an appetizer! I've also added a pic of a healthier, lighter version of this recipe...

Comments from the Test Kitchen:

These savory bites are a wonderful served as an appetizer. We took Mindy's suggestion and made up some rice and refried beans to turn these yummy apps into a memorable Mexican-inspired meal!

Directions

In a skillet, brown hamburger til no longer pink, drain. Add taco seasoning & 1/4 cup water, let simmer. Chop all veggies, set aside.

Fill won ton wrappers w 1 tblsp. hamburger, sprinkle w cheese, fold in triangle. Brush edges of won tons w water (or egg wash), seal the seams. In a medium skillet, warm oil over med high heat. Add wontons, brown on each side, about 2 min. Remove from skillet once golden & crispy to paper towels to absorb any grease.

Add veg toppings, as you would a taco...serve w refied beans & rice, or as an appetizer. Enjoy!
