My entire family really enjoys Mexican flavors. I use Mexican flavors in a lot of ways and this recipe just might be one of my favorites! This would be great for any party and certainly great for a Mexican holiday celebration! You can also make this with a lot of heat or just a little! We like heat, so mine packed a punch!
INGREDIENTS
1 pound ground beef
1 envelope of taco seasoning (low sodium)
1 can of Ro-Tel tomatoes with green chili’s ( you can get original, mild or hot)
3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
3/4 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
12-15 Wonton wrappers
Toppings
Sour cream
Jalepeno’s (I like the ones you find in the jar, but you can certainly use thinly sliced fresh jalepeno’s)
Salsa
DIRECTIONS
Preheat your oven to 300 degrees. Spray muffin tins with non stick spray and take one wonton wrapper and place one wrapper in each muffin cup with the wonton wrapper coming up the sides of the tin. When you have all of your wontons in the cups lightly spray the wrappers with the non stick spray. Place in your preheated oven and bake until the tips of the wrappers are a light golden brown. (Mine took about ten minutes) remove from the oven and set aside.
Brown your ground beef in a medium size skillet and drain extra liquid when cooked through. Add the taco seasoning and the can of diced tomatoes (not drained) to the skillet and stir until combined. Add the American cheese and the Monterey Jack cheese and stir until the cheese is mixed through and melted. Remove the beef mixture from the heat and fill each won ton wrapper with some of your beef mixture. When the won tons are all filled you can put them back into the oven for just a few minutes to warm everything through. When warmed through remove from the oven and add your toppings. A little dollop of sour cream and or salsa and a ring of jalapeño .
Serve warm.
Enjoy!
