Mini Lasagnas



Sorry, my pictures of this dish didn't come out very well, so I'm using the magazine picture just so you get the idea of how it's supposed to look. But the dish itself came out PERFECT! All four of my family members loved it. We served a salad with dark greens and tomatoes as well as garlic bread. The whole meal (including the salad and garlic bread) takes about 30 minutes to put together and serves four. I would do this again in a heartbeat because it's fast, only requires four ingredients ( a big plus with me), and it's real comfort food. This recipe came from PREVENTION Magazine. They have some great recipes.

INGREDIENTS:
                             Wonton wrappers (or egg roll wraps)
                              Marinara sauce - any favorite of yours will do.
                              Part-skim ricotta
                              Pesto - I used fresh

RECIPE:
1) Heat oven to 375F with rack in middle position. Coat 12 muffin cups evenly with cooking             spray.
2) Line each cup with a wonton wrapper (corners will stick out).
3) Fill each cup with 1 tablespoon marinara sauce, 1 teaspoon part-skim ricotta, and 1/4 teaspoon pesto.
4) Repeat to create a second layer of ingredients in each cup.
5) Lightly coat edges of wonton wrappers with cooking spray.
6) Bake until edges are golden brown and filling is heated through, about 10 minutes.
7) Let stand in muffin pan 1 to 2 minutes before removing with a spoon (or fingers) and transferring to plates.

Have FUN!
