Lasagne Cupcakes

I made the taco cupcakes a few weeks back and this past week decided to try the Lasagne Cupcakes... I took them to a party and they were a sensational hit!  Do I take credit?  No, not really.  They were just too easy to make, quick and totally delicious!  Do you have a hectic, on the go, type of life?  If so, you have to start using won tons and a cupcake holder to make your life easier!  It takes only a few minutes to prepare and 20 minutes to cook. Ingredients: 1 lb of hamburger 3 Tablespoons or more of Italian seasoning ( I add extra) 5 oz. of chopped mushrooms (optional) 2 cloves of chopped garlic (optional) 1 pkg. Won ton wrappers (in the produce section of most large grocery stores) 8 oz. of fat free Ricotta cheese 1 container of Parmesan cheese, freshly grated (usually found in the deli section) 1 jar of Spaghetti sauce (any type - I prefer the roasted garlic and basil - if you use this type don't add extra garlic!  Just a warning.....) 1 bag of shredded Mozzar

Taco Cupcakes

OK I'm hooked!  Saw this recipe on the internet in several places and I thought I would try it.  Won Ton wrappers in a taco recipe....right.  I thought won ton wrappers were exclusive and limited but boy was I wrong! Can't wait to try the Lasagne Cupcakes.  I will critique them after I try them and post my thoughts. Ingredients: 1 lb of lean ground beef 1 pkg of taco seasoning 1 can of black beans rinsed 1 pkg. of Won Ton wrappers (you will find these in the produce area) 1 1/2 chili oil (in the Asian food section) 1 jar of Queso dip or salsa con queso 1 jar of chunky salsa 1 can green chilis (don't drain) 1 cup shredded Mexican cheese (regular or reduced fat) 1/4 cup of water If you are having a party you will use all of the ingredients noted above and 32 won ton wrappers.  If you want to cook all of the ingredients and then only make about 8 "cupcakes" then freeze the other half of the meat to make more later in the week after a hard day at work.
