As a family, we really enjoy making homemade egg rolls together. This wonton version is a healthy twist on regular egg rolls. No frying needed!
While this recipe is perfect for a simple kid-friendly dinner, it’s also a great option for lunch.
It’s a great option for a meal you can make on Sunday to pack up and send to school or have ready for kids to grab during the weekdays at home.

How To Make Wonton Cups
This recipe uses wonton wrappers rather than egg roll wrappers. Wonton wrappers are smaller and fit perfectly into a muffin tin.
To get the wontons shaped into a cup, start by spraying a muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
Gently press the wonton wrapper into the prepared muffin tin, flattening the bottom. Give them a quick spritz with the cooking spray once in the muffin tin. This helps get them nice and crispy.
Bake wonton cups at 350° for 6-7 minutes. They will be nice and browned when they are done.
You can wait and bake a few at time to serve the wonton cups hot, or bake a bunch and store them in an airtight container until they are ready to be used.
How to Make Pork Egg Rolls
To make the pork egg roll filling, start by browning the seasoned pork sausage, drain, stir in garlic powder and ginger, then remove the meat and set aside.
In the same pan, add the sesame oil and vegetable slaw. Heat until the vegetables start to wilt and soften, about 4-5 minutes. Stir in the soy sauce then add the pork to the vegetables.
Add the egg roll mixture to the baked wonton cups and your meal is served!
If you’re serving this on a different day, all that’s needed is a quick reheating of the egg roll mixture. You can send it to school in a thermos to keep it warm. Kids can spoon the filling into the cups or crush the wonton cups into the filling, either way is super tasty!
