Healthy Recipe- Recipe Linky Party!

So when I saw Ms. Fiorini's Recipe Linky Party, I knew that it was the perfect time to tell you about my sister Katie. She has a healthy website with tons of recipes that she has created to help people still enjoy the {bad} foods that they crave, but in a healthy way! I am the FIRST to tell you that the food tastes so yummy! (I am usually her taste tester!) :)

So if you're looking for quick, healthy, and satisfying foods... check out her website! You won't be disappointed that you did! Also, she is coming out with a updated website and MEAL plans for all you busy people out there.

One of my favorite recipes is her Skinny Pizza Rolls. If you looove pizza {like I do}, you'll loveee this! Did I mention it only has 30 calories per pizza roll?!?!?!

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
• 1/2 cup Pizza Sauce (or Tomato Sauce)
• 20 Turkey Pepperoni’s
• 24 Wonton Wrappers
• 1/8 cup Parmesan Cheese
• 1 tsp Basil/Oregano mix OR Italian Seasoning
• 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
• pinch of sweetener, (sugar/stevia/splenda)
• pinch of black pepper
• *Optional: 1/3 cup Chicken Breast, Diced OR 1/3 cup Light Italian Sausage

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Prepare a large baking sheet with parchment paper, or foil coated with non-stick cooking spray. Gather ingredients.

2. Pour pizza sauce, (or tomato paste), in a medium bowl…

3. Followed by the mozzarella cheese.

4. Slice the pepperoni into quarters, and add them to the sauce/cheese mixture.

5. Stir until combined.

6. Next, add the seasonings.

7. Stir again until everything is well combined.

8. To begin filling wonton wrappers, I find it easiest to create an ‘assembly line’. I did this by stacking my wonton wrappers, and having my filling, and a small bowl of water near by to ’seal’ the wrappers shut.

9. Then, begin filling by placing about a tablespoon of filling in the center of each wrapper. You could use a little more or less, just try not to over-fill them, or the filling will ooze out the sides when you are baking them.

10. To seal them shut, place your finger in the water…

11. Trace two of the corners with the water…

12. And fold the wrapper in half to meet the two dry corners with the two wet corners.

13. Press to seal the two sides together. (Note: the water acts like glue to seal the corners shut!)

I decided to do half of my pizza rolls with chicken, and half without… So I added my chicken to my sauce mixture after making half of my pizza rolls with just pepperoni.

And I continued making my pizza rolls until all of my wonton wrappers were filled. (Note: You may be able to fill even more than 24 wrappers depending on how much filling you use in each one!)

14. When wonton wrappers are filled, give them a light spray with non-stick cooking spray…

15. And sprinkle parmesan cheese over the top of each one.

16. Lay pizza rolls out on prepared baking sheet.

17. Bake in preheated oven (450 degrees) for 10-15 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden brown.

Serve warm and enjoy!

Enjoy! Love Katie
