TRADER JOE’S HACK POTSTICKER SOUP
we love a good trader joe’s hack around here and we’d like to introduce our latest obsession, the pot sticker soup! your gonna like this one… – joanie
what you’ll need:
• 1 package Trader Joe’s Gyoza (chicken or pork)
• 2 – 32oz cartons of chicken broth
• 1/2 white onion diced
• 4-5 baby Bok Choy (washed really well, these things hold dirt!)
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 2-3 garlic cloves
• 3 cups sliced mushrooms
• 3-4 tablespoons ginger paste (or chopped fresh ginger!)
• chopped cilantro for garnishing
• 2-3 limes sliced for serving
• olive oil
• green onions
• In a large pot or frying pan heat 1-2 tablespoons olive oil on medium. cook the onions and mushrooms until the onions are translucent and mushrooms are cooked down, about ten minutes. add the gyoza and brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. next add the chicken broth, soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger paste. bring to a simmer and remove from heat. mix in the baby bok choy, and green onions.
• serve immediately and garnish with cilantro, and lots of fresh lime juice! it’s also great with a drizzle of Sriracha hot sauce.

This looks SOOOO good! Agree with Sara – most TJ hacks! Have you guys experimented with any of the pre-mixed salads?

This looks so good! How many servings does this make?

This looks incredible.
This is a l33t hack.
ha! thanks Scottie
Definitely going to make this! Where are those gorgeous bowls from?
They are from thedeastore. You would need to contact them directly if you are out of Australia for shipping.
Ooooh perfect idea for another way to cook the TJ’s potstickers! I love those things and I love making different soups. Getting the ingredients this weekend! Thanks! 🍃🍲✨
Can’t wait to make! Love TJ’s with my whole heart!
It just got cold in Baltimore and we have made this soup twice in the last 2 weeks. One big adjustment we made was to fry the mushrooms and the potstickers separately, one by one, in a fry pan and then assemble just before eating. Otherwise our potstickers disintegrated and the mushrooms got mushy. Still amazing though.
Good advice-I wanted to do a lunch soup for the week type thing, and this is how I’m going to do it. Keep my veg/pot stickers separately and add in the broth and heat.
You don’t mention when to add the garlic…
