DinnerIngredients
- 1 tsp or tbsp Ginger
- 2 Green onions
- 1 clove Fresh Garlic
- Your preference Soy sauce
- Your preference on how many you want. Carrots
- One Cabbage
- One package Mushroom
- Your preference Sesame oil
- A pack Wonton wrappers
Instructions
- 1Chop up all your veggies and sauté them in a large pan. This will be the filling.
- 2Add in your green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and a pinch of salt and pepper for taste.
- 3While your filling cools, prepare your favorite dipping sauce.
- 4Add the filling to your wonton wrappers. Fold the wrappers in a half moon shape. Then fold back and forth on the sides. Pat your dumplings on a flat surface, insuring that they can stand up on there own.
- 5You can freeze your dumplings or cook them. I froze half of mine and cooked the others. To cook them, add dumplings to a large pan and let them cook until a crisp has formed on the bottom.
- 6Add water in your pan and cover it. Let your dumplings cook. It doesn’t take that long.
- 7Plate and enjoy!

Open in Pepper →Why the Best Vegetarian Meals Don't Try to Fake Meat
Butternut lasagna, French onion soup, and dumplings are complete meals on their own — no meat substitute needed to make them satisfying.
Cooks on Pepper lean on eggs, beans, halloumi, and Parmesan to add richness without opening a package of processed vegan crumbles.
The recipes here are the community's Meatless Monday rotation — dinners that a devout carnivore would still finish.
Quick Tips
- 1
Beans need more salt
Legumes are bland unless heavily seasoned — don't be shy with salt, acid, and spice.
- 2
Add an egg on top
A jammy egg over any grain bowl adds richness and rounds out the protein.
- 3
Toast your nuts
Thirty seconds in a dry pan wakes up walnuts, pine nuts, and almonds — night-and-day flavor.
- 4
Umami boosters
Miso, soy sauce, Parmesan, and nutritional yeast give vegetarian dishes the depth meat usually provides.
