What better way to begin the new year than by eating and drinking more healthily.

This home recipe still needs to be optimized, but it’s off to a delectable start!

Wonton.

Wonton filling.

Into the frying pot!

Ready to eat fried wonton.

Hope you’re ringing in the new year with a crunch!

Step 2: Melt chocolate.
Step 3: ???
Step 4: Profit!

Looks like I need a bit more practice with my dipping skills, though!

(Granted, a box is easier to wrap than an item irregular in shape.)

It’s something I observed as a little girl whilst watching my mom wrap presents. Half the time, gift-giving (or anything, really) is about presentation — food, for example, is more appetizing when it features a combination of colors that appeals to our senses.

Hopefully, what’s inside the box will be just as much appreciated!
