This Veggie Dip is quick and easy to whip up! Made with sour cream, mayo, dried herbs and seasoning, it’s the perfect companion for fresh-cut vegetables.

This dip is creamy and refreshing, just like my Creamy Corn Dip and it’s bound to be a hit at any party!

Creamy dips are my jam! Especially if I can whip them up in matter of minutes. This Veggie Dip is (almost) guilt-free because it’s made to be served with fresh, sliced veggies. It’s a fun way to get your daily veggie intake. The base of this dip is made with mayo and sour cream but you can adjust it to save on calories, by using low-fat versions or skip the mayo and use Greek yogurt.

Easy Vegetable Potstickers

These Easy Vegetable Potstickers are filled with a veggie mixture of cabbage, carrots, onion and mushrooms. Make a batch of these Asian dumplings and enjoy with a dipping sauce or freeze for later!

They are as fun to make and eat as my Cream Cheese Wontons. Perfect appetizer or main dish that can be served with any Asian sauce, like my homemade Teriyaki Sauce.

These pan-fried and steamed Chinese dumplings (also known as Jiaozi) can look a little intimidating to make but I am here to tell you that they are actually quite easy and very fun! All you need is a few veggies, the Asian cooking trio (soy sauce, rice vinegar and sesame oil) and wonton wrappers. You can even use the square ones and cut them into rounds. The folding technique is actually easy, just don’t expect the first dumpling to be perfect.

These Cream Cheese Wontons are both crispy and creamy. The Rangoon style, fried dumplings are filled with seasoned cream cheese mixture. Simple yet irresistible!

Serve these wontons with Sweet and Sour Sauce or my best Teriyaki Sauce. It’s a great appetizer idea that is bound to be a hit!

When I am craving crispy and creamy appetizers, I go for these wontons. These deep-fried dumplings are irresistible! Even though the filling is quite simple, with just cream cheese, garlic powder and green onions, these wontons make for a satisfying treat. They are quite fun to make once you get the hang of folding the wrappers. Don’t expect the first few ones to be perfect.
