Give me won tons or give me death! I really don’t know what I would do without won tons when I am dieting. They help get too much “carbiness” out of the way, but still provide a nice “shell” for foods and a great way to divvy up servings. This little recipe was inspired by an AMAZING “Buffalo Egg Roll” I had at a little place near Cleveland, OH. It was HUGE and wrapped in a flour tortilla and fried…so it was more like a chimichanga, but I knew I could make this much more healthy.
These Mini Buffalo Chicken Rolls are a delight and would be awesome to serve as a appetizer for a party or with a salad for dinner like Brett and I did. The broccoli slaw provides a bit of a crunch and a cooling from the buffalo sauce, but I found the cheese in such a small portion doesn’t provide a TON extra. It could be cut out all together if you’re really watching your calories or it could be doubled for a delightfully cheesy experience.
These also ring in at around 33 calories EACH, depending on the ingredients and brands you are using. If you’re interested…the recipe is below!
Ingredients
8 oz cooked, shredded chicken breast
1/2 cup Frank’s RedHot Sauce (Or to your liking- more/less.)
1 cup broccoli slaw
1/4 cup low fat shredded cheese
24 won ton wraps
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Spray cookie sheet with non-stick spray.
- Mix shredded chicken with hot sauce and cheese.
- Fill and fold won ton wrappers into tiny little egg rolls.
(See pictorial step by step below.) - Place fold down on cookie sheet.
- Bake for 13-18 minutes or until golden brown/crisp.
- Enjoy alone or dipped in more hot sauce or ranch/blue cheese!
Okay, so if you are baffled as to HOW you should fill and fold, this little insight is for YOU. NOTE: On Step 4, you should wet down the open corner to be sure it adheres to the side of the won ton when rolled into step 5.
