NOT-SO-PRO TIPS

Like most lunches, I meal prep these and eat them throughout the week. You can reheat these in the microwave but I highly recommend a toaster oven or an air fryer if you have one! Either will help keep the edges crispy, link to my favorite air-fryer below.

Some of these ingredients might be unfamiliar to you but I found them all at my local supermarket. Wonton wrappers are usually in a refrigerated area of the produce department and the sauces are typically in an “Asian” section but I’ll link some options below, just in case.
