I saw these all over Pinterest a while back and wanted to make them. These are really supposed to be appetizers, but we had them for dinner one night. I was skeptical since wonton wrappers do not seem like logical Mexican ingredients, but my need for new Mexican recipes prevailed and I powered through. I'm so glad I did. They were outstanding. Bill said he loved them and that we definitely needed to make them next time we have people over. I served them with salsa, sour cream and guacamole. I liked it best with all three on them (I used packaged guacamole because I wanted to try it - won't do it again - homemade is definitely the way to go for guac). Who wants to come over so I can make these again as appetizers! :)
