Dinner Idea Recipes Lasagna Bites
Quick and Easy Wonton Lasagna Bites
I absolutely love pasta and it loves me back equally. Lasagna is a treat but it is also extremely heavy, time consuming and expensive to make which is why I had to urbanize it.
- Ingredients
- fresh garlic
- marinara sauce either home made or from a jar
- veggies (mushrooms, bell peppers, onions)
- fresh herbs or jarred (basil, oregano, rosemary, thyme)
- protein optional
- seasoning (salt, pepper, crushed red pepper, Vegeta and italian)
- cheeses (ricotta, mozzarella and or Italian blend)
- wonton wrappers
- spray olive oil
- you’ll need a standard size cupcake pan
Start by preheating the oven to 400 degrees, sauté the vegetables and garlic in olive oil. If you’re making fresh marinara sauce this step isn’t necessary because you’ve already made the sauce to your liking. Once vegetables are sautéed, add jar sauce, seasoning cook on a low simmer. Turn off skillet then stir fresh diced herbs. At this time you can cook the protein if you choose to add it to your bites.
Lightly spray cupcake pan with olive
- place wonton wrapper in each cupcake mold
- thinly layer with marinara sauce then ricotta cheese
- place second wrapper on top and layer with marinara and mozzarella
- continue until you’ve made at least 4 layers then top with mozzarella and Italian seasoning
- Bake for 20 or until edges are golden crisped
You can pair 2 bites with a salad or eat 3 by themselves. They freeze extremely well in quart size freezer bags. Warm in oven to reheat. Bon Appetit!
