Seafood Wontons

3 lbs. cream cheese
1 T. Lawry’s garlic salt
½ t. black pepper
1 T. powdered onion
1 t. horseradish

Combine all the above; mix well & set aside.

1 C. minced onion
1 C. minced celery
2/3 C. thinly sliced green onions
1 lb. imitation crab meat (squeeze to remove some juices, but not too dry)

Combine minced onion & celery with cream cheese mixture. Gently fold in crab meat & green onion until well combined. Put a little filling in wonton wrappers & fry until golden brown.

Wontons may be frozen for later use. Fry until light golden brown, then drain on paper towels. Freeze in single layer, then wrap well. Later, defrost wontons then fry until golden brown.

For variety, try substituting chopped salad shrimp for crab meat.
