Quick Wonton Lasagna Cups Recipe: A Tasty Dinner or Fun Appetizer Beef Dinner Appetizers Lunch

Who doesn't love beefy, cheesy, saucy lasagna? But who says it has to come in a large pan that's enough to feed an army? These quick lasagna cups are small, but packed full of Italian flavors, meat and cheese. They're fun to eat and really easy to make.

These individual lasagna cups are made with wonton wrappers, not lasagna noodles. The wontons get crispy and are the perfect container for the lasagna filling. The simple filling is made with ground beef, Italian sausage, spaghetti sauce, ricotta, garlic and parsley, and then topped with mozzarella cheese. They bake up in 15 minutes and can be served as a main dish for dinner or lunch, or as appetizers

You could use all ground beef or all Italian sausage for this lasagna cups recipe. Alfredo sauce can be substituted for the red pasta sauce. Get creative!
