Baked Mini Lasagna Cup in Wonton Skin (In Muffin Pan!)

 

Lasagna in a muffin tin? Yes, it's possible! The wonton wrappers peek out over the edge of the muffin tins and get crispy and also look hip! These lasagna cupcakes are so easy to make and use the same ingredients in the classic lasagna with layers of veggies, cheeses and pasta. Instead of lasagna noodles, wonton wrappers are used. Now, bite into this savoury appetizer and experience a incredible contrast of texture from the crispy shell to the soft flavourful filling.
