State Fair Cream Cheese Wontons
While this food is not a traditional fair food it is inspired by our one and only Lee-Ann Chins. A Minnesota company that has had a booth at the Minnesota State Fair in the Food building.

While these are a simple dish to make at home ...

Without the Minnesota State Fair this year Peyton was really bummed she wasn't going to get her fill of Peterson's Pork Chops on a Stick. ...
