Wanton Taco Appetizer and Christmas Party Ideas

We got our tree up!  We went with a 9ft Fraser this year.  It was a lot to decorate, but it looks great!  

 I hosted an ugly sweater Christmas party this past weekend.  FUN!  We  played games and did a grab bag gift exchange. Everyone did a really great job shopping.  I provided lots of good eats.  One of the faves were these wanton tacos.  They are super easy to make.  

Ingredients:

• 1lb ground beef
• 1 packet of taco seasoning
• Wanton wrappers
• Shredded cheese

Instructions:

• Preheat the oven for 350 degrees. 
• Prepare your taco meat according to the taco seasoning packet.
• Place your wanton wrappers into a cup cake pan. 
• Spoon taco meat into each wanton.
• Sprinkle cheese over the meat.                     
• Bake at 350 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes.  

Adding a dollop of sour cream and a few chile pepper slices would be good too.  

Enjoy!

Here are some ideas from my party:

 I had everyone make up an elf name for themselves and I gave out naughty Santa pins as party favors. I used gift tags as name tags.  They didn't seem to stick well though.

I also made a photo booth wall for funny pictures.  I just used some wrapping paper and some paper snow flakes as a back drop and had a box of props. 

 

The pictures turned out really cute!

 

I hope everyone else is enjoying the holidays too!  I will be back with another appetizer recipe soon.
