Tips to make Spinach and Artichoke Wonton Cups

• Ensure your spinach is thoroughly drained. A watery filling can ruin the crispy vibe!
• Experiment with the cheese! If you’re feeling adventurous, add some mozzarella or even a bit of feta for the win.
• Don’t skip the fresh garlic. It ups the flavor and gives these cups that lovely aromatic kick.

Variation

If you want to switch things up, consider using different fillings. You could add some cooked chicken, swap in some sun-dried tomatoes, or even throw in a few spices for some extra zing. The world is your oyster (or, you know, your wonton)!

FAQs

1. Can I freeze the wonton cups?
Absolutely! Just freeze them before baking. When you’re ready to eat, pop them straight from the freezer into the oven. They may need a little extra time, but you’ll be golden!

2. How can I make these spicy?
Easy peasy! Just add some diced jalapeños to the filling or sprinkle in some red pepper flakes for that hot touch. 🔥

3. Can I make these gluten-free?
Yes! Just swap out the wonton wrappers for gluten-free ones. There are some great options out there nowadays.
