10 Minute Hot & Sour Dumpling Soup

This soup is perfect for rainy days or if you're feeling under the weather! The sourness and heat helped clear my congestion a bit and it was so delicious. This dish comes together in 20 minutes!
I am not a fan of frozen food but the reality is we don't have time to handmake everything these days. Always look out for ingredients and try to choose minimally processed options. One of my favorite frozen dumpling brands is called Laoban and you can find them in the freezer section at Whole Foods
