Everyone will love these bite-sized crab rangoon, fried to crispy perfection. Just place the crab filling onto square wonton wrappers, fold them into triangles, pull up the other edges to seal, and fry them until golden brown. To make these in advance, freeze them on trays, then fry them from frozen just before your party.

While the oil is heating, place 1/2 to 1 teaspoon cream cheese mixture into the center of a wonton wrapper. Moisten the wrapper edges and pull two corners together over filling to make a triangle. Pull two remaining corners up to join them, then press firmly to seal. Repeat to make remaining wontons. Place prepared wontons under a slightly moist paper towel until oil is hot.

Spicy Southwestern Slaw
Great topping for tacos--also a nice side dish for any type of Mexican or Tex-Mex entree! Hint: The measurements are approximate- I usually make this without any. You can use green or purple cabbage, or a combination of the two. Same goes for green or red bell peppers. For extra heat, use an additional jalapeno pepper.
Easy Zucchini Mushroom Skillet
Try this easy zucchini mushroom skillet, full of colorful and tasty vegetables, and far from the same old side dish. Yellow bell pepper is beautiful with the zucchini in the dish, but red or orange bell peppers will do just as nicely. The mushrooms, garlic, and Italian seasoning add lots of flavor. Chops or chicken work well with this side, and with all the vegetables, either a simple green salad or a Caesar salad will be delicious.
