Easy Broccoli Cheese Wontons Recipe

I thought I'd share a fun recipe that my kids love to have for an after school snack. I made these for them today because this is their first week back to school. They have become obsessed with wonton wrappers and the variety of different foods and flavors you can combine to make a fun snack.

These Broccoli Cheese Wontons are really easy to make, you only need 5 ingredients; broccoli, cheddar cheese, cream cheese, wonton wrappers, and oil for frying.

How to Make Broccoli Cheese Wontons

First steam your broccoli (I just put mine in the microwave for two minutes in a bit of water). Chop it up in small pieces.

Now that you have prepared the broccoli, you are ready to assemble the broccoli Cheese Wontons with the other ingredients. 

First, lay out the wonton wrappers and spread a dab of cream cheese and a pinch of shredded cheddar cheese on each.

Next, top with broccoli. Make sure to not put too much filling on each wrapper or else you won't be able to seal them shut.

With your finger, spread water over the edges of the wonton wrapper. Then seal it shut, being careful that the filling isn't coming out the edges and not to puncture the wonton wrapper.

Now you can fry the wontons in preheated oil, turning them over once each side is browned.

Once they are golden brown, remove from the oil and place on a paper towel until cool.

Now they are ready to enjoy!
