Pork Dumpling Lasagna
If you love dumplings but don’t love the time it takes to fold dozens of them, this Pork Dumpling Lasagna might become your new favorite dinner. Instead of individually wrapping dumplings, layers of wonton wrappers and seasoned pork bake together in a savory broth until tender, juicy, and full of flavor.
This cozy dish has all the flavors of classic dumplings but in a simple layered casserole style that makes it perfect for busy weeknights. The wonton wrappers soften while baking and create a texture that tastes surprisingly close to a giant dumpling.
Once it comes out of the oven, finish it with chili oil, sesame seeds, and fresh green onions for a bowl that is savory, comforting, and packed with flavor. It is the kind of recipe that feels a little different from the usual weeknight rotation but still comes together with minimal effort.
How This Recipe Can Support Inflammation and Endometriosis

This pork dumpling lasagna includes several ingredients that may offer supportive benefits:
Garlic and ginger both contain natural compounds that may help support the body’s inflammatory response. Ginger, in particular, has been studied for its potential role in reducing inflammation and supporting digestion.
Green onions provide antioxidants and plant compounds that help support immune health while adding fresh flavor to the dish.
Protein from pork helps keep meals satisfying and balanced, which can support stable energy levels and blood sugar throughout the day.
