These are super yummy and easy to make!
If you’re a fan of avocado egg rolls found at restaurants these days, you’re going to love these crispy little bundles!
Fresh avocado is diced and tossed with lime and other great flavors to create the delicious filling in these! Wrap them in wonton wrappers (about 3″x3″) and fry until crisp! Wonton wrappers can be found in most grocery stores (although Walmart does not typically have them). Check in the deli or near the tofu/soy products. If you don’t see them there, it’s a good idea to ask because they sometimes hide in unusual places!
Crispy Avocado Wontons
Ingredients
- 12 wonton wrappers
- 1 avocado diced
- 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons sundried tomatoes drained and diced
- 1 tablespoon red onion minced

- oil for frying
Cilantro Dipping Sauce

- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ tablespoon cilantro or to taste

Cilantro Dipping Sauce

Avocado Wontons
- Preheat about ½″ vegetable oil in a pan.
- Combine diced avocado & lime juice. Toss with sundried tomatoes, onion and cilantro.
- Working with one at a time, place about 1 tablespoon of filling on each wonton wrapper. Dip your finger in water and run it along the edges of the wrapper. Fold diagonally and seal shut by pinching the edges.

Can these be frozen then cooked after or cooked then frozen thinking of making a party will have banquet pans to keep warm during party
I haven’t tried freezing these Brenda. Let us know how it works if you try it!
Do you use the sun dried tomatoes that are in oil in the jar or a different type?
I use the ones in oil and lightly drain.
What wine would you serve with these?
Looking forward to trying these tonight! Just a heads up though – Walmart does carry wonton wrappers. I’ve bought them at multiple Walmarts over the years and every one of them had them even when the staff had no clue where they were. Just picked some up there today. They are always in the refrigerated section of the fresh produce area near the bagged salads. ;-)
Can I serve them cold?
These are intended to be served warm.
Can you bake these instead of frying?
I haven’t tried these baked but I think it would work. I would recommend spraying them with cooking spray or lightly brushing with out before baking.
Love these! Even my picky teenage daughter loved these!! Great after-school snack when she comes home “staaarving”. She used ranch dressing to dip (her personal preference).
So glad you and your daughter enjoyed these Kim!
At least some Walmarts carry wrappers, eggroll and wonton, in the produce (vegetable) section.
