Strawberry Cucumber Salad Cups


Strawberry Cucumber Salad Cups - a delicious, fresh salad served in small portion won ton cup. Easy, healthy appetizer or family snack!

Ingredients
1 pound fresh strawberries, hulled and diced
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons fresh basil, thinly sliced
1 English cucumber, peeled and diced
1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
24 (2 inch) won ton wrappers
Directions
In a medium bowl, combine the first four ingredients and refrigerate for 1 hour. 

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a 24 cup mini muffin tin. Place the wonton wrappers carefully into each cup of the muffin tin, shaping them gently into cups. Be sure to press back the edges and leave an opening for the filling. Bake for approximately 10 to 12 minutes, or until crispy and lightly golden. Cool and set aside. 

Combine the remaining ingredients and toss gently with the strawberry mixture. Place a heaping spoonful of the salad into each won ton cup. Serve immediately. 

Note: The won ton cups maintain their crispiness for quite a while, even with the salad mixture. However, you do not want to place the salad in the cups too far in advance of serving them.
