Cleaning Out the Fridge

Yesterday I got bored and made a couple things to use up leftovers in the fridge/freezer.  Clearing out leftovers is the goal that brings me joy between Thanksgiving and Christmas.  Yesterday I made:

 

Cherry Pie Wontons


 

I made these from leftover wonton wrappers, about 1.5 cups frozen tart cherries (which I only ever buy because it's hard to find a bag of all sweet cherries anymore), some sugar and a tiny bit of corn starch. I basically just made a scaled down amount of cherry pie filling, put it in the wontons, sealed them with a mixture of equal parts water and flour, and fried them in a shallow amount of oil.

 

Cream Cheese and Green Onion Wontons 

 


I didn't have enough cherries to use up all the wonton wrappers on cherry pie wontons, so I used package of cream cheese, a little garlic powder, and a couple extra green onions I had on hand for making one pot peanut sauce noodles next week. Successfully finished off the wonton wrappers.
