Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • ½ medium onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup marinara sauce
  • 1 tsp dried Italian seasoning
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • 24 wonton wrappers

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Brown beef in oil over medium-high, add onion and garlic, then stir in marinara and seasonings. Simmer 5 minutes.
  2. Mix ricotta, 1 cup mozzarella, Parmesan, and egg in a bowl.
  3. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin. Layer a wonton wrapper, meat sauce, cheese mixture, a second wrapper, more sauce, a small cheese dollop, and a sprinkle of remaining mozzarella in each cup.
  4. Bake 18 to 20 minutes until golden and bubbly. Cool 5 minutes in the pan.
  5. Run a knife around edges and lift cups onto a plate. Serve hot.

Notes

If you prefer a spicier kick, use hot Italian sausage or add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce. Let the cups rest in the pan for those 5 minutes so the cheese filling sets enough to hold its shape.
