Trader Joe’s dumpling bake trend inspires vegan recipe variations

Trader Joe’s frozen dumplings have become the center of a viral food trend, specifically the ‘dumpling bake.’ This dish typically involves mixing frozen dumplings with coconut cream, Thai red curry paste, and Soyaki sauce before baking.

New vegan variations of the recipe have emerged on social media. One version utilizes organic coconut milk, peanut satay sauce, Sriracha, garlic, and spinach paired with frozen vegetable gyozas. Trader Joe’s offers several plant-based options suitable for these recipes, including vegetable dumplings made with shiitake mushrooms and bamboo shoots, as well as Thai vegetable gyozas.
