Recently, as I stuffed my gob with microwaved frozen vegetable gyoza from my favorite friendly grocery store, I read the back of the dumpling package. Every ingredient, except for the wrappers, is routinely housed in my crisper drawer. I wondered, how hard could it be to make my own fresh veggie dumplings?

Not hard at all, especially since I purchased prepared dumpling wrappers. In fact, this recipe is so easy, little ones can help if you need a rainy day, eat-your-vegetables project. (Omit the fresh ginger to reduce the spicy heat.) Then branch out into other varieties, adding tofu, shredded cooked chicken, or any other leftover proteins you have on hand. Ready in less than 20 minutes, the only way this delicious DIY dumpling project goes wrong is if you don’t do it at all.
