Crispy Wonton Pizza Bites
Ingredients (makes ~20 bites):
● 20 wonton wrappers
● 1 cup cottage cheese, blended smooth
● ½ cup shredded mozzarella
● ½ cup diced turkey pepperoni (or chopped cooked chicken/ham)
● ¼ cup pizza sauce (plus more for dipping)

2. Assemble the bites: Place a wonton wrapper on a clean surface. Add ~1 tbsp of filling to the center. Lightly brush edges with egg wash. Fold into a triangle or roll like a mini burrito, sealing all edges tightly.

○ Oven: Bake at 400°F for 10–12 minutes until golden and crisp.
○ Pan-fry: Lightly fry in oil for 1–2 minutes per side until bubbly and golden.
4. Serve: Let cool slightly. Serve with warm marinara or ranch for dipping
