Ingredients
For wontons:16 wonton wrappers.5 cup canned corn (no salt added variety).5 cup black beans (low sodium variety)1 cup baby spinach1 tsp minced garlic1/8 haas avocado1/2 tsp Trader Joe's Chili Pepper Hot Sauce1 tbsp cilantroFor sauce:2 tbsp nonfat greek yogurt1 tsp Mrs. Dash Garlic and Herbjuice from 1/4 of a lime
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly grease a cookie sheet with nonstick spray.

In a pan on medium heat, add the garlic and heat until slightly golden. Add spinach and cook until wilted. Remove from heat.

Put spinach, corn, beans, and hot sauce in a small food processor. Pulsate 4 or 5 times just to combine ingredients and break up the beans a bit.

Put a teaspoon full of the mixture in the center of each wonton wrapper. Top with a little of the diced avocado.

Moisten the edges of the wonton (or else it will not stick) and fold it in half, corner-to-corner, so it makes a triangle.

Moisten one of the two long corners of the wonton triangle and pinch the two corners together to make a completed wonton. Repeat procedure for all 8 wrappers.

Place wontons on the cookie sheet and bake at 400 degrees F for 10 minutes or until golden and crispy.

For the sauce, whisk yogurt, lime juice, and Mrs. Dash in a bowl until combined and serve drizzled on top of the wontons or on the side.

Makes two servings, 8 wontons each.

    The rolling of the wontons was a little bit of a disaster for us, but it was fun and they were yummy! - 6/17/10
