Morgan's Baked Wonton Turkey Taco Bombs.



Recommended Posts

Hey guys, I've been experimenting and came up with these delicious little bites.

Ingredients:

- premade wonton wrappers (you'll need more than 60!)

- a package of ground turkey (1.25 pounds)

- a package of cheese (2 cups)

- a small can of diced jalapenos (4 oz), drained

- a package of of taco seasoning (i used low sodium).

Directions:

1) brown turkey meat and prepare taco meat according to the directions.

2) mix in the drained jalapenos and let the meat cool.

3) once the meat mixture has cooled, stir in the 2 cups of cheese.

Now comes the tedius part.

4) place 1 teaspoon in the center of each wonton wrapper, wet the edges with Water and wrap it up to make it look like a little bomb.

5) place on a cookie sheet sprayed with nonstick spray and cover with a damp cloth as you go.

When you finish wrapping them you can freeze them, they make over 60 or more wontons! To cook them...

If they are thawed:

-- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees, spray the tops of the wontons with non stick cooking spray and cook for 10 minutes.

If they are frozen:

-- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees, spray the tops of the wontons with non stick cooking spray and cook for 14 minutes

I eat about 6-8 in a serving, the nutrition facts depend on your brand of meat and what cheese you choose as well as the taco seasoning. You can dip them in salsa or non-fat sour cream. The non stick spray helps give them a cruchy fried texture.

Also, if you want the same taste but simpler time prepping, make the same filling and put them in egg roll wrappers instead, you'll get less but it takes a fraction of the time.

i would use salsa in place of the seasoning as that is all salt.

otherwise, sounds good to me

Sodium isn't the largest concern for me as I have really good blood pressure now, but I actually did use a low-sodium brand, so I would suggest that if that's available to you, otherwise though salsa would be good, but being that it's fruit and veg it may increase the carbs.

i'll take that over sodium :)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
