Dumplings-Pot Stickers

I made these dumplings sometime ago and they were really delicious. Since then, my kids have been craving for more. So last evening, I decided to make some for them. This time though, I made the dumplings using store-bought wrappers. The dumplings turned out great too! If you are keen on making your own wrappers, I do have the recipe over on my older post for these dumplings. Click here to get the recipe. Okay, have a good weekend and Happy 4th of July!
