Since our whole family LOVES any type of Asian cuisine, we were super psyched to try out the new Stop and Shop World Menu line–particularly the Asian-inspiration items! We consider ourselves connoisseurs of dumplings and gyoza, so we had to try out the pot stickers. We also picked up some vegetable spring rolls to pair along with our chicken and broccoli stir fry.
Eating out can get expensive with a family of five, so we’re trying to cut back. Most of the time I cook at home, but I will admit that my husband and I have quite a weakness for Chinese and Thai take-out! It’s nice to have tasty options like the Asian-inspired line to help beat that temptation (we picked them up for $3.50 on sale this week, and there are also coupons in front of the freezer case for $1 off).
I am happy to report that the appetizers were gone in a matter of minutes! We each tried a spring roll and too many pot stickers to count! For a dipping sauce, I used this recipe, and it was great for both the spring rolls and the pot stickers.
I also picked up some of the World Menu Italian seasonings: the Arrabiata and Bruschetta mix (I can’t wait to use this one come summer time when we have fresh tomatoes and basil!). If you are more of an Italian person, you should check out the Gnocchi or the Broccoli Rabe and Smoked Provolone.
The next time you find yourself craving take out but it’s not in the budget, head over to Stop and Shop and make your own! 🙂

I make my own gyoza which are surprisingly easy but you really need to do them in big batches and freeze them for later use. So when I don’t have any left or have the time to make more a good frozen alternative is perfect.
I enjoyed these from stop and shop as a quick craving fix. Picked up a box today for $3.79. Personally if you have a Trader Joe’s in your area and don’t mind fighting the lines; their gyoza either vegetable, chicken or pork are better in my opinion. A little less expensive as well, still the S&S brand is also very good. Thanks for the recommendation.
I have been meaning to try and make them on my own, though I’m afraid they would be eaten way too quickly lol! I like the TJ’s ones too. I just wish our Trader Joe’s wasn’t 40 minutes away 🙁
