EASY POT STICKER SOUP

Easy Pot Sticker Soup image

Since my husband and I have soup often, I'm always coming up with something new. I saw pot stickers in the freezer and decided to feature them in an Asian soup. The results were delicious. Rice vinegar provides just the right tang, and the green onions and carrots add color. Stir in chopped cabbage or bok choy if you'd like. A little sesame oil goes a long way, but you can always add a bit more. -Darlene Brenden, Salem, Oregon
