SO HOW'D IT GO?
This was really simple and tasty!
Oh my god, what a treat! I didn't really follow the recipe, but I did use this to create a vegan chick'n and dumping dish... divinnnnne. I accidentally made it too salty, but then my meat-loving dad and brother actually loved it, too.
My mom is from Arkansas, but we live in Philly, so she was always limited to reminiscing about good southern cuisine: there's no southern restaurants around here, and she never cooked a lot of southern food due to a) our health, and b) lack of skill with cooking dumplings and pie crusts from scratch. I was sooooo excited to hear that biscuit dough can be used for the dumplings! I can't wait to make this for my mom.
