Crab Filled Crescent Wontons

IMG_4694

So the phrase too many cooks in the kitchen came into play for this post. I was helping my dad film an episode for his weekly appearance on Sporting Chef when I forgot I had these in the oven so they came out a little darker then I would have liked. Oh well, they where still tasty little bites and easy to prep ahead of time and pop them in the oven when you need them.

Happy Father’s day to my daddy, husband and all the great dads out there!!
