Baked Shrimp Rangoon Recipe

A traditional Rangoon is typically made with crab and deep fried in vegetable oil. In other words, they are a yummy treat that sticks to the hips. My husband and I love Chinese food, but I do not like how much of it is fried. Well, actually, I lied…I love how much of it is fried, but I just can’t eat as much of it as I did when I was in college.

Recently, Nikki from Beaute’ J’adore shared a recipe with me that made me VERY happy – a Rangoon that is baked! To top it off, it has shrimp and I love shrimp. Check it out…
