Savory Goat Cheese and Butternut Squash Won Ton Cups

When making these delectable little cups ensure that you use a cooking oil spray to coat the mini muffin tin and to spray on the won ton shells prior to cooking. This will ensure that the cups bake up a nice golden brown and super crunchy. Then just fill with the goat cheese and squash bake to warm through about five minutes and serve garnishing with the roasted pepitas. That’s it! A super simple appetizer that is full of flavor.

8 oz Goat Cheese
10 oz Butternut Squash (Cubed)
2 tbsp Pumpkin Seed Oil
