Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat a large pot to medium heat. Add sesame oil and shitake mushrooms; stir so they’re all covered. Sprinkle in a pinch of salt. Cook for 5 minutes.
  2. Stir in garlic/ginger cubes, honey and soy sauce. Simmer together.
  3. Pour in broth and frozen edamame and bring to a boil. Stir in baby leaf kale, mini frozen dumplings, and bok choy pieces. Taste the broth and add chili crisp to your liking – i start small and then always top my individual bowl with more!
  4. Reduce heat to low and cover for 5 minutes to let the kale and bok choy wilt
  5. Serve hot in individual bowls garnished with more green onions, sesame seeds, chili crisp or wonton strips!

Notes

  • Note on the broth: You can use any combination of chicken broth, beef broth, veggie broth, etc. I used half bone broth to up the protein.
  • The wontons get soggy and/or break apart when they sit in the broth for too long. If you’re making this for meal prep or planning on leftovers, I suggest boiling the wontons in a separate pot of water and combining just before eating for best results.
