I love Chinese American food as much as anyone else. When I want to treat myself on a weeknight, I usually order takeout from my favorite local spot. It’s affordable, and, honestly, it’s delicious. Just thinking about it makes my mouth water. One of my top indulgences (besides crab rangoons, of course) is pot stickers. They’re crispy, tender, juicy — what’s not to love?

Don’t get me wrong — I can get by well enough, but there are some sacrifices I’ve had to make. One of the biggest? Forgoing a full-size trash can.
