This was pretty good. I never made dumplings before but they worked just fine. I also added extra cheese and spinach to them. I added minced garlic to the stew (I put garlic in EVERYTHING0 and some extra italian seasoning and it worked out nicely. I will make it again.

I omitted the mushrooms & added a can of tomatoes. A little extra spinach & parmesan made the dumplings delicious! This was the first recipe I made from this website, & I will definitley make it again!
