Saucy Dumplings
I love semi homemade recipes. It takes a lot of the heavy lifting out of what looks like a gourmet recipe. These saucy dumplings are no exception. It comes together quickly with some frozen dumplings, boiled in salty broth and a whole bunch of garnishes. I added mushrooms as well, just to make it a little more hearty.
