Vegetable Stew with Corn Meal Dumplings

[Guest guest]

I have no idea of the origin of this...

 

Vegetable Stew with Cornmeal Dumplings

3 cups peeled butternut or acorn squash cut into 1/2-inch cubes

2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms

2 14-1/2-ounce cans diced tomatoes, undrained

1 15-ounce can Great Northern beans, rinsed and drained or 1.5 cups homecookes;

any bean will do

1 cup water or vegetable broth

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning, crushed

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

1/2 cup all-purpose flour (I use whole wheat pastry flour)

1/3 cup cornmeal

2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese or nutritional yeast (lots of B vitamins

and a nice cheesey flavor)

1 tablespoon snipped fresh parsley

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 egg or egg replacer

2 tablespoons milk (plant or animal)

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 9-ounce package frozen Italian green beans or frozen cut green beans (I hate

green beans, so I use frozen chopped spinach)

Paprika

In a 3-1/2- or 4-quart slow cooker, combine squash, mushrooms, undrained

tomatoes, Great Northern beans, the water, garlic, Italian seasoning, and

pepper. Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 8 to 10 hours or on high-heat

setting for 4 to 5 hours.

For dumplings: In a medium bowl, stir together flour, cornmeal, Parmesan cheese,

parsley, bakiing powder, and salt. In a small bowl, whisk together egg, milk,

and oil. Add to the flour mixture; stir with a fork just until combined. If

using low-heat setting, turn to high-heat setting. Stir frozen green beans into

stew. Drop the dumpling dough into six mounds on top of the stew. Sprinkle with

paprika. Cover and cook for 50 minutes more. (Do not lift lid while dumplings

are cooking.)
