Lasagna Cupcakes

Ingredients:


  • 1/3 
    pound ground beef
  • salt 
    and pepper
  • 24 
    wonton wrappers
  • 1 3/4 
    cups grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 3/4 
    cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 3/4 
    cup ricotta cheese
  • cup pasta sauce
  • basil for garnish (optional)

Directions:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray muffin tin with cooking spray.
  • Brown beef, and season with salt and pepper. Drain.
  • Cut wonton wrappers into circle shapes (about 2 1/4- inches) using a biscuit cutter or using the top of a drinking glass. You can cut several at a time. Note: For a more rustic look, no cutting necessary!
  • Reserve 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese and 3/4 cup mozzarella cheese for the top of your cupcakes. Start layering your lasagna cupcakes. Begin with a wonton wrapper and press it into the bottom of each muffin tin. Sprinkle a little Parmesan cheese, ricotta cheese, and mozzarella cheese in each. Top with a little meat and pasta sauce.
  • Repeat layers again (i.e. wonton, Parmesan, ricotta, mozzarella, and pasta sauce). Top with reserved Parmesan and mozzarella cheeses.
  • Bake for 18-20 minutes or until edges are brown. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes. To remove, use a knife to loosen the edges then pop each lasagna out.
  • Garnish with basil and serve.
