Keeper: Easy Dumpling Soup - steal the broth
https://www.budgetbytes.com/easy-dumpling-soup/
First time it was mediocre and not worth it
used different dumplings the second time-- the discount outlet korean ones-- and these stayed together which made it worth it.

2 cups vegetable broth* ($0.24)
1 Tbsp soy sauce ($0.06)
1 tsp toasted sesame oil ($0.06)
1/4 tsp fish sauce, optional ($0.02) -- used 1 tsp of the veg oyster sauce

Garnishes, optional
1/2 tsp sesame seeds ($0.03)
1 Tbsp Sichuan Chili Crisp ($0.3
Combine the vegetable broth, soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, and the white parts of a sliced green onion in a medium-sized pot. (If using, also add the fish sauce, pre-cooked proteins or tofu, and any fresh or frozen vegetables that need time to soften.)
Bring the broth up to a boil on medium-high heat. Once boiling, add the dumplings.
Cover the pot and allow the soup to come back up to a boil. Boil the dumplings for about 2 minutes or until they are cooked through. (Consult package directions.)
Turn off the heat and stir in the green parts of the sliced green onion and a handful of spinach.
Split the soup into 2 serving bowls and top with any desired condiments.
