Don't Eat Crap

It’s Friday! I had some left over wonton wrappers from an attempt at baked crab rangoons (they weren’t good) so I decided to make my first batch of wonton soup.

Wonton Soup (serves 6-8)

Ingredients

• 1 16 oz. Medium Jimmy Dean Pork Sausage (I would have used HOT but G doesn’t like spicy foods)
• 24 wonton wrappers
• 4 c. chicken stock
• 3-4 green onions, chopped
• 1 tsp brown sugar
• 1 Tbs rice wine vinegar
• 1 Tsp soy sauce
• 1 tsp ground ginger

In a large bowl, combine pork, sugar, rice wine, soy sauce, 1 teaspoon chopped green onion and ginger. Blend well.

Place about one teaspoon of the filling at the center of each wonton skin. Moisten all 4 edges of wonton wrapper with water, then pull the top corner down to the bottom, folding the wrapper over the filling to make a triangle. Press edges firmly to make a seal. Bring left and right corners together above the filling. Overlap the tips of these corners, moisten with water and press together. Continue until all wrappers are used.

FOR SOUP: Bring the chicken stock to a rolling boil. Drop wontons in, and cook for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onion, and serve.

Delicious on a cool day! Don’t skimp on the green onions, they are the perfect addition to your soup bowl.

Tonight we are eating like kings. I’ll be attempting to cook scallops for the first time, and we’ll be having baked potatoes, squash, and multi-grain bread. I have some serious veggies to eat up. Tonight we are staying in, carving pumpkins, drinking apple cider, and watching the Avengers. What a fun night at home. I plan on making another Apple Crisp Pizza with the apples dad brought on Sunday and the other pie crust in the fridge. I hate having things in the fridge and no plan in mind for them (i.e. wonton wrappers and pie crust). But I don’t think G will be too upset about the Apple Crisp Pizza.  I am still looking for carving ideas. Any suggestions?
Have a great weekend friends!
