INSTRUCTIONS
SOUP:
- In a large stockpot melt the butter over medium heat. Add carrots, celery, potatoes, and onion. Cook until onion is softened. Stir in garlic and cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute.
- Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute. Stir in broth, turkey, milk, and poultry seasoning. Taste and add salt and pepper to taste. Bring soup to a simmer.
DUMPLINGS:
- In a medium bowl combine the flour, baking powder, poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir in the milk and egg just until combined and there isn't any dry flour.
- Drop batter by 2 tablespoonfuls on top of the soup. Cover with a tight fitting lid and simmer for 15 minutes. Don't peek.
- To replace poultry seasoning: Use your leftover herbs such as thyme, rosemary, sage, and parsley. Finely chop and add 1-2 tablespoons to your soup. Use 1/2-1 teaspoon in the dumplings.
- To make stuffing dumplings: Whisk together 2 large eggs with 1/3 cup of flour. Crumble 2 cups of leftover stuffing over egg mixture. Stir to combine. Use more flour if it is too sticky or add a little water 1 tablespoon at a time if it’s too dry to form into balls. Use about 2 tablespoons of stuffing mixture to make dumplings. Drop on top of simmer soup, cover, and simmer for 8-10 minutes. Don’t peek!
- Canned biscuit dumplings: You can replace the dumplings with canned biscuits. Cut each biscuit into fourths and drop into the simmering soup. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes. No peeking!
