gyoza wrappers

🥗Healthier: whole wheat wrappers

💰Cheaper: wonton wrappers

Whole wheat wrappers add fiber while wonton wrappers are often less expensive.

shiitake mushrooms

🥗Healthier: portobello mushrooms

💰Cheaper: button mushrooms

Portobello mushrooms provide a similar texture, while button mushrooms are more affordable.

sesame oil

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Olive oil is a healthier fat, while canola oil is a budget-friendly alternative.

lime juice

🥗Healthier: fresh lemon juice

💰Cheaper: bottled lemon juice

Fresh lemon juice offers a bright flavor, while bottled is more convenient and cost-effective.

Heat a small- or medium-sized pan on the stove to medium-high.

Add olive oil to the pan.

Once the oil is hot, add the frozen Trader Joe's Thai vegetable gyoza with the flat side down.

Saute the gyoza for about 1 minute, until the dough is golden brown.

Flip the dumplings with tongs to brown the other two sides for a couple of minutes.

Turn the burner down to medium low or low and add water.

Cover the pan to allow the gyoza to simmer and steam.

After a couple of minutes, almost all of the water will have evaporated.

Remove the lid and allow the rest of the water to evaporate.

Get the gyozas out of the hot pan and serve with teriyaki sauce in a bowl.

Top the gyozas with chopped green onion.
