Mini Corndog Bites & Wonton Wrapper Tacos


Mini Corndog Bites

Ingredients
     Software:

  • 1 package cornbread mix (always a staple in my cabinets)
  • The ingredients called for on the package of the cornbread. Usually milk and an egg.
  • 6(ish) hotdogs
  • Any condiments you'd like
  • Either Pam, or margarine to grease the pans.
    Hardware
  • 1 medium mixing bowl
  • 1 mini muffin pan
Directions
  1. GREASE muffin pan! (this step is a lifesaver)
  2. Preheat the oven at directed temperature.
  3. Prepare cornbread mix as directed.
  4. Cut hotdogs so there is one for each muffin cup. (if using 6 hotdogs cut into 1/4ths)
  5. Spoon cornbread into GREASED muffin cups.
  6. Drop a piece of hotdog into each cup.
  7. Bake until golden brown around the edges.
  8. Serve with your favorite corndog condiments.
Wonton Wrapper Tacos

Ingredients
     Software
  • Wonton wrappers (1 package was more than enough for me) (also they can be found at HEB and Kroger in the vegetable section)
  • Ground beef (1lb)
  • 1 can beans, I used ranch style, but you can use whatever you'd like.
  • approximately 1/2 a package of shredded cheese (your choice, I used some leftover "Mexican Blend")
  • Any extra taco toppings
     Hardware
  • Muffin pan (regular or mini I used both & liked the mini ones better)
  • Skillet to brown meat in (Make sure the sides are high enough, our dog got an awesome treat!)

Directions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350.
  2. Brown the beef, I added some (approximately 1 tbsp) steak seasoning, a little garlic or onion powder and some salt and pepper.
  3. Heat the beans in the microwave (my solution, of course you can substitute whatever method you'd like.
  4. Lay a wonton wrapper in each muffin cup. 
  5. Spoon in the beef. 
  6. Then beans. 
  7. Then sprinkle some cheese on top.
  8. Bake in the oven at 350 for about 8 minutes (until the wonton wrapper corners begin to brown).
  9. Finish by adding your favorite taco toppings.
