 I usually get everything for this from the dollar tree, but this time I just got the chicken pot stickers. 

Still a low cost and yummy soup.

NEED

• 1 tablespoon sesame oil

• 1 onion, chopped

• 2 cloves minced garlic

  I also had a handful of mushrooms that I sliced up and added to this. 
  

   
  

Put some of the sesame oil in a hot Soup Pot .

Place the chopped onion and minced garlic and cook up until fragrant. Let the onion turn translucent. 

Pour in the  broth , water, green onion , and 1 tablespoon sesame oil.

Bring this to a boil and season it with salt and pepper.

Reduce the heat and add the pot stickers and stir - fry vegetables. 

Cook until the pot stickers float.
