Wonton wrappers!



Recommended Posts

Does anyone use these? They seem perfect for tortilla substitutes. Pinterest has a few recipes using them, I just wanted to get some opinions!

I saw one recipe on pinterest using the wraps with prego sauce, pepperoni, and cheese. They were excellent and fun to serve. Hubby liked them. Can really only eat 2 or 3 so it's a good treat. I baked them in my tabletop convection oven. Linda

I also tried the one where you stuff into cupcake pan and make taco. That was good to. I would think kids would like these. We liked them.

I've used them, but have found that I like flatout bread better. I found it at a local organic store called sprouts. They have 2 kinds big wraps and a smaller foldable one. I use half of one and its about 7.5 carbs with some lunch meat and cheese... or I have even made pizzas with them, some sauce, cheese and meat... I use it with egg salad.... I use to use won ton wrappers for a lot and even did cupcake bakes with them.. still do occasionally. I have used wonton wrappers for burger cupcakes, bbq chicken cupcakes, hawaiian cupcakes, google won ton cupcakes and you will find a slew of recipes :)

Where are these in the store? Are they at Whole Foods or your local grocery store? I like 7.5 carbs!!

I've seen the flatout breads in my local grocery store and at Walmart near the deli counter. Directly in front of the meat and cheese case.

I used to enjoy these preop, I can't wait until I can add them back in.

I found them at a store called Sprouts. Not sure if you have them, it is a wholefood type store. They were near their Bagels and things like that. I would ask a local store if they carry them. I have heard you can get them at Wal-Mart. I couldn't find them at mine.

I think I am going to make chicken enchiladas with egg roll wrappers. I will put shredded chicken, cheese. Wrap them up in the wrapper and place in a baking dish. Then I will pour enchilada sauce over them and bake. I think that they will be pretty good. I will let you all know. I also will make southwester egg rolls (modified) no corn since I cannot have it yet but I will spray them with olive oil and bake them. Then make a nice chipoltle dipping sauce. Can't wait.

Look up emilybites.com and go to her cupcake/muffin area and most everything is used with wonton wrappers. I love using them!

This is a topic I need to know about. I love making lasagna cupcakes with wonton wrappers and I wondered if I still could post surgery.😊

      Does anyone know, how long it takes for Medicare to approve surgery?

        I think it depends entirely on what guidelines you're being referred under. I had that kind of insurance through the state as a low-income person for 10 years and even though I was over 400 lb for 10 years they denied me. All based on the fact that I did not have diabetes. I switched insurances once I was offered a different kind of coverage from work and was approved within two months

      I got a little bag of samples when I saw the nutritionist last week. Turns out I much prefer the Celebrate 45 Tropical Twist vitamins to the Bariatric Fusion orange flavor, so I've placed an order for those and the sweet treat assortment of calcium soft chews, which were almost dangerously tasty. The Unjury chicken soup was better than the other brand I tried, but not enough to buy it. And their vanilla shake was vile. I just can't do artificial sweeteners, and probably not vanilla unless I add something to it to mask the flavor. The aftertaste was so strong and I had a vague impression of drinking baby formula. So far the only ones I've really liked have been the orange and peach flavored Syntrax Nectar Naturals, so I'm going to get two vegan fruit flavored options in case I have trouble with whey after.

      I'm new here and unsure how to reply/respond to people. Guess I'll figure it out, or maybe you can help me a lil. lol.  A lil direction would be nice.
      I'm still wrapping my head around having this surgery to lose weight. I have completed all requirements, in 2022, and now it's a waiting game.  I missed a call in Aug. to have the surgery. 1st call I have missed in years and it had to be THAT one!   I was so upset at myself and then fell back back that weekend to my ol' comfort food; ice cream.  I fall from time to time but then get backup on my Johnny Wayne Saddle and do better. 
      I have been waiting so long I forgot what the specific surgery is called. 🤔.  It's the one where my stomach will look like a banana.  I just want this done so I can be on my way to a healthier and more active person, and hopefully feel physically and mentally better and better sleep too. We'll see. 
      Wishing everyone a safe and successful surgery.

        Has anyone messaged you and helped?

        If you go to the top of the page and click on your user name there will be a drop down that will allow you to do things from there. The interface on this site is a little wonky and could use some improvement, basically, you'll kinda have to click around until you find what you want to edit/update.

        I tried adding stuff to my albums and it uploaded the same things twice and I can not delete the duplicated picture. If you add a ticker and later you want to update it, like you lost more weight or you're closer to a certain goal, you have to go through the whole ticker choosing process again. The site can be a little frustrating.

      Today was my 1 month followup, 5 weeks post surgery. My dietician gave me a gold star review for my post op diet, and I graduated to Stage 4 of my program. Stage 5 should be approved in November, and that is the forever way of eating.
      I had to go to a post op nutrition class as part of my appointment today. There was a young lady in there that had been eating WAY off diet, and she was not doing well... She had been eating fast food, but peeling the buns off, eating vegetables that were not well-cooked, and eating all kinds of foods that were not part of the detailed instruction that everyone in this program receives. We had SO many caveats from Day One to not try to jump ahead on the schedule for the foods that we eat. I was baffled that someone would decide to eat off program, especially so soon after surgery. She became tired of the liquids & soft foods, so she chose to eat ahead.
      The result of her skipping ahead was that she had experienced a lot of vomiting & foamies, a lot of pain, and was unable to drink any fluids. She started feeling flushed and faint in class and had to be sent to the hospital to get some IV fluids.
      The discipline that one needs for bariatric surgery cannot be overstated. We have to dig deep mentally and physically to get through surgery itself, learn new things, manage medications, and really lean into that crucial change of mindset and behavior. I hope that this young lady is able to get herself together to make the most of her surgery.

        Great post. Thank you for the insight/update. So happy to hear you are doing so well. Keep up the good work.

        I am still waiting for my surgery...though classes were completed 9/2022. I don't like the waiting game. But I will say that my 'surgery buddy' mentioned this site and am happy I'm hear and hope to gain support and insight for my surgery.
