CRAB SALAD IN CRISP WONTON CUPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray 2 mini-muffin tins with cooking spray.
• Brush the wonton wrappers with oil, and place each wrapper into a section of a mini-muffin tin. Gently press each wrapper into the tin and arrange so that it forms a cup shape.
