These Mini Asian Salad Cups are not only cute and easy-to-make, but they are a sneaky way to get some veggies in, especially when entertaining.

This post was sponsored by Eat Smart as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central and all opinions expressed in my post are my own. I received product samples to facilitate my review.

I have been reading a book that has inspired me to eat better. It has motivated me to eat 9 servings of fruits and vegetables per day.  Initially, that seems like it might be hard to do, but it really isn’t. Especially since I love salads.

Problem is, not everyone at my house likes them as much as I do. So, what’s a girl to do? I decided to create cute little appetizers using the Asian Sesame Vegetable Salad Kit, one of five delicious Eat Smart Gourmet Vegetable Salad Kits.

🥘 Ingredients

These little salad cups are super simple to make. For this recipe, you need the following ingredients:

  • 1 package Asian Sesame Vegetable Salad kit
  • 1 package of wonton wrappers
  • 1-2 Mandarin or clementine oranges peeled and segmented

🔪How To Make Salad Cups

Start by lightly spraying a muffin cup with non-stick spray. Then place two wonton wrappers in each cup and press down on the bottom and sides to form the cup. Then lightly spray the cups and bake in an oven that has been preheated to 350 degrees for about 10 minutes.

Once the cups have turned a nice golden brown, remove them from the heat and allow them to cool. (I place mine on a cooling rack.)  While they are cooling, I open the bag of salad and pour the greens into a large bowl. Since the cups are little, I tear the greens into smaller pieces and then add the included dressing mix.

I then add the toppings and stir it all together. (You could save the toppings for last if you’d like.)

I then take a small amount of salad and place it in the wonton cups.

I like to add clementine or mandarin segments to some of them for an extra little burst of citrus.

I could make 2 dozen appetizers with each bag, but I only make 1 dozen so that I can have a big salad for myself later.

    What a great idea! I am hosting a bridal shower in October and will use this idea – a great way to serve salad and still not have to worry with forks! Thanks for sharing.
