Tonight's Dinner: Asian Vegetables and Potstickers

If you're anything like me, you love to get an appetizer or two when you go out for Chinese food. My first choices are always spring rolls and potstickers.

While I prefer chicken or pork potstickers, I'll take vegetable as well. There's nothing better than dipping those little dough-wrapped dumplings in soy sauce and tiding myself over until the cashew chicken shows up. So, you can imagine how thrilled I was when Better Homes and Gardens decided to turn that delightful little appetizer into a full entrée; I was even more excited when I saw how easy it was: a bag of my favorite potstickers, a bag of stir-fry vegetables, an easy sauce, and dinner is served!
