Bacon Time with the Hungry Hypo’s
First of all, cook 1 pound Italian sausage until done. I used turkey, but feel free to use what you like best. Add in 4 ounces cream cheese and 1/4 cup chopped olives, if you like. Stir until cream cheese is completely incorporated into the sausage.
Chop up some mozzarella. I only had string cheese, so I used that!
I used about 3/4 cup. Add it to the sausage mixture.
Add about 2 Tbs. mixture to the dumpling wrappers. My daughter will now show you how to fold up the wrappers! She asked me to help and I thought I would let her try one to be nice, but she ended up doing such a good job, she ended up wrapping most of them!
Isn’t she cute? I bet you can’t tell we’re from the south. 🙂
Be sure to use water to seal the edges, and work quickly so they wrappers don’t dry out.
Here they are all wrapped up!
Again, be sure to cook them right away so they don’t dry out.
Then, heat up about 2 Tbs. vegetable oil in a skillet. Pan fry the dumplings about 4-5 minutes on each side. Watch closely for burning. Not that I’ve ever done that, but I’m sure it can happen. 😉
And apparently, we were so hungry that I didn’t get a pic of the completed product besides the *awful* photo above, but trust me, they were tasty. You can also add crushed red pepper if you like things a little spicy. We do, but we were trying to make sure the kids could eat them.
So what do you think?
Have you ever used dumpling wrappers?
I can’t wait to see what you’ve cooked up!
