So not funny Little Brother!
Breakfast started out this morning (not with Krispie Kremes!) but with 2 slices whole wheat bread toasted with some Brummel and Brown and a fried egg for 8 points. I was hungry for protein and this hit the spot.
Lunch is somemore Buffalo Chicken Salad with crackers, carrott sticks and cucumbers for 9 points:
I have been reading Danica's Daily and have looked several times at her:
Chicken Pot Sticker Veggie Soup Recipe:
INGREDIENTS:
2 tsp sesame oil
3 carrots, peeled and sliced
2 summer squash, halved and sliced
2 c fresh sliced white mushrooms
1 garlic clove, minced
32 oz Organic Chicken Broth
3 Tbsp Annie’s Organic Teriyaki Sauce
1 tsp (dashes) Srirachi or your favorite hot sauce
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Package Trader Joe’s Mini Chicken Pot Stickers or comparable frozen Won Ton’s or Su Mei
6 c Organic Spinach
4 Scallions, sliced
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Heat sesame oil in a large sauce pan over medium heat. Add carrots through garlic and sauté for four minutes. Add Teriyaki Sauce, hot sauce and chicken broth. Bring to a boil.
2. While the soup boils, heat the olive oil in a medium skillet and add pot stickers. Cook for two minutes or until slightly browned and remove from heat.
3. Add pot stickers to the soup mixture and boil one minute. Add the spinach and cook for an additional minute. Remove from heat and stir in scallions, reserving a small pinch to top soup boils.
Makes 4 LARGE servings with 9 potstickers each. Each serving is 4 WW Points+!
Has anyone ever tried Chicken Pot Stickers and if so are they good? I found some at Kroger I think I could substitute but still rolling around this recipe in my mind wondering if I want to try it. It's got lots of good veggies in it but don't want to spend the $7.78 on the Ling Ling Chicken Potstickers if they aren't good. Anybody know for sure? Here is a picture of them:

Wow, that seems like a lot for frozen potstickers!
ReplyDeleteI usually make mine because a package of 50 wonton wrappers is only .99 cents. You can check out my shitty photography in this old post of mine:

After you broil them you can then Pam fry them to get them crispy on the bottom. While this is a tedious process - once you make them you can put them on a cookie sheet, individually freeze them and then they are ready when you are.
And you can use any filling you want using leftover chicken, veggies, etc. Hope that helps!
Those are good, especially if you make them crispy on the outside with the sauce.. but too high cal! Good idea to find a healthy version recipe.
ReplyDeleteDivide the bag into 4 and you have 3 per serving, Throw away the sauce, the potstickers per serving come out to 4 pts.
