This was really tasty! I was very skeptical of how well the wonton wrappers would hold together, but they held together really well. I would definitely make this again. I would debate using a lighter sauce though.

Moisten edges of wrapper with egg white, and bring 2 opposite corners together. Press edges together with a fork to seal, forming a triangle. Repeat procedure with remaining won ton wrappers, spinach mixture, and egg white.
