Ingredients
- 12 pieces Wonton wrappers
- 1.5 cups Cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
- 2 cups Romaine lettuce, finely chopped
- 0.5 cups Caesar dressing
- 0.25 cups Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.5 cups Croutons, crushed
- Olive oil cooking spray

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil cooking spray.
Gently press one wonton wrapper into each muffin cup, shaping it to form a small bowl.
Spray the wonton wrappers lightly with olive oil cooking spray.
Bake the wonton wrappers in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove and let them cool completely in the muffin tin.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded or diced chicken, chopped romaine lettuce, Caesar dressing, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Mix until everything is evenly coated.
Once the wonton cups are cooled, carefully remove them from the muffin tin.
Spoon the chicken Caesar salad mixture evenly into each wonton cup.
Sprinkle the crushed croutons over the top of each salad cup for added crunch.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
