I know, another soup! With my better half working from home for the last year, there’s a need for another meal to have on hand….lunch. I typically make a big batch of soup at the beginning of the week for my little buddy. This potsticker soup is a fragrant and comforting chicken soup with tender, filling potstickers, flavors of fresh ginger, green onions, and soy. A perfect plan for a quick and delicious mid-day meal.
