One of the things I do look forward to is the different types of foods this time of year.  I like to make soups, crockpot recipes & various things in the oven.  I like the smell of different things cooking, but also how it warms the house up.  I had posted about this recipe last year.... but it has been one of our favorite recipes when the weather gets colder, so I'll post it again.  (however this time it even includes pictures!)

Potato Dumpling Soup -

(original recipe from Cooks.com, but I've adapted it to our tastes.)

First, cube potatoes (approx. 8), dice onions (1 lg.) & celery (2 stalks).  Put in large pot and cover with water.  Cook this until all are tender.

While your potatoes, onions and celery are cooking make your dumplings. 

(2 Cups of flour & 2 eggs, salt and pepper.  I also add a bit of milk to help moisten it so that it forms a nice dough ball.)

Once the vedgies are moist, add 2 cans of evaporated milk, a Tbsp or two of sugar, 2 Tbsp. butter & some parsley.  I have used fresh or dried.

Turn down to a simmer.  Once it comes back to a boil, you can add your dumplings by scraping pieces of dumpling off with a fork.  I have found that if you dip your fork into the soup it comes off very quickly. 

It only takes a few minutes for the dumplings to cook.  When ready, serve!

This is a favorite for everyone in my family!  (if you know my son... that is a challenge!)

This serves probably about 8.  (give or take)
