This post contains affiliate links for your shopping convenience. I love cranberries. Which is a good thing -- I happen to live in New Jersey, one of our nation's biggest cranberry-producing states. Since now is a peak time for harvesting cranberries, it's perfect that my Taste Creations Blog Hop friends and I are getting together today to share our cranberry recipes. Another food love of mine is shortbread. Surprisingly, I've never made shortbread until recently. I was under the mistaken impression that baking shortbread is difficult. Was I wrong!

Sweet Potato & Kimchi Pot Stickers (Gyoza)
I received the Twin Dragon Asian Gyoza Wrappers free for this recipe as part of the Twin Dragon Asian Wrapper Blogger Recipe Challenge. Happy Monday, everyone! As a kid, I grew up with pierogi.

My husband, whose parents were from Korea, grew up eating Asian-style pot stickers (called "mandu" in Korean) and kimchi, a fermented spicy cabbage dish.
