Mango Salsa Wontons

I love the lush, tropical vibe of this hors d-oeuvre perfect for warm, summer evenings. Aside from the exotic flavour, it is bursting with skin saving antioxidants and it's only 35 calories per piece!



Vegetable oil cooking spray
1 package of 24 wonton sheets
1 large ripe mango, peeled, pitted and diced
1 small cucumber, peeled, seeded and diced
Half a medium red onion, finely diced
2-3 tbsp fresh lime juice
2-3 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro (or more to taste)
1 tbsp olive oil
Pinch of cayenne pepper


Coat mini muffin pans with cooking spray and line the molds with wonton sheets. Bake at 350 degrees for 9-12 minutes or until golden brown. Cool. Combine remaining ingredients plus salt and pepper to taste. Fill each wonton with salsa and serve.
