# What You'll Need:

→ Wonton Cups

01 - 24 square wonton wrappers
02 - 2 tablespoons olive oil for brushing

→ Spinach-Feta Filling

03 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
04 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
05 - 7 ounces fresh spinach, chopped or 5 ounces frozen spinach thawed and drained
06 - 4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
07 - 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
08 - 2 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt
09 - 1 large egg
10 - 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
11 - 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
12 - 1/4 teaspoon salt

→ Garnish

13 - 2 tablespoons fresh dill or parsley, chopped

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 24-cup mini muffin tin with cooking spray or oil.
02 - Brush each wonton wrapper lightly with olive oil. Press one wrapper into each cavity of the muffin tin, pleating slightly to fit the shape.
03 - Bake the wonton cups for 5 to 7 minutes until lightly golden and crisp. Remove from oven and set aside to cool.
04 - Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add spinach and cook until completely wilted, approximately 2 minutes. Remove excess moisture if necessary and allow to cool slightly.
05 - In a mixing bowl, combine cooled spinach, crumbled feta, softened cream cheese, Greek yogurt, egg, black pepper, nutmeg, and salt. Mix until uniformly combined without overmixing.
06 - Spoon approximately 1 tablespoon of the spinach-feta mixture into each pre-baked wonton cup, filling evenly to the rim.
07 - Bake filled cups for 8 to 10 minutes until the filling is set and the edges of the wonton cups are crisp and golden brown.
08 - Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly. Garnish with fresh dill or parsley if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.
