How to make Artichoke Cheese Wontons
Grated Parmesan cheese, mayo, garlic powder, Monterey Jack cheese, water-packed artichoke hearts, wonton wrappers (typically found in the produce section near herbs and such) and fresh chives.


First, measure out your Parmesan cheese into a small mixing bowl…

…then your mayonnaise (the real stuff)…

then your garlic powder, mix well.

Next add your grated Monterey Jack cheese, I eyeballed the measurement, a cups worth is about a full barrel in my small grater.

Chop up your drained, artichoke hearts into bite size pieces and add to the mixture.

Gently mix to combine all ingredients, at this point the mixture may be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, covered.
Preheat your oven to 350°.
Spray one or two 12-cup mini-muffin tin(s) with non-stick or oil spray and gently press your wonton wrapper into the tin, gently pushing and folding down the edges of the wonton wrappers onto themselves, but allowing for a nice pocket.

Bake, unfilled for 5 minutes until edges are lightly browned, about 7 minutes.
Wrappers may be used and filled at once or if making ahead, wrappers may be stored once cooled in a tightly covered container at room temperature for up to 24 hours; just return them to the muffin tin(s) before proceeding with filling.
ASSEMBLE YOUR WONTONS
When ready to assemble; preheat oven (if you made ahead) to 350°. Fill each cup with a heaping teaspoon of the artichoke mixture.

Bake at 350° until golden brown, about 5-8 minutes.
If desired, garnish with chopped chives and serve warm.
