Tonight I was in the mood for tacos, but those damn shells can kill you with calories, never mind the cheese. So i came up with a Taco Wonton Lasagna "Cupcake"183 calories with all of the flavor and crunch of a taco.

Taco Wonton Lasagna "Cupcake"
12 Wonton wrappers
8 oz ground beef 80/20
1 pkg taco seasoning mix
½ cup Rotel Tomatoes, drained
½ cup low fat shredded Mexican cheese blend, split by ½
2 wedges low fat Laughing Cow swiss
3 stems green onion chopped for garnish on top (optional)

Heat oven to 375
Spray your cupcake pan lightly with a non-stick spray like PAM.
Brown the ground beef, then follow the directions on the package of taco seasoning mix.
In a large bowl mix your hot taco mix with your Laughing Cow Swiss wedges until the cheese is fully coating the taco mix. Add in your Rotel Tomatoes and mix well.
Place 1 Wonton Wrapper in each of your cupcake tins. Take half of your taco mix and evenly fill half of each of your cupcakes. Take a ¼ cup of your Mexican cheese and evenly cover your taco mix. Layer another Wonton wrapper over your Mexican cheese and repeat with the rest of your taco mix and another ¼ cup Mexican cheese. Top with your chopped green onion.
Bake for 18 min or until the Wontons and cheese are a pretty brown.
Let cool slightly before removing from tray.
