Turkey and Dumplings
Here's an easy recipe for the copious amount of turkey and trimmings you most likely have leftover from your Holiday meal. This turkey and dumplings is the ultimate comfort food and is very flexible...use whatever leftover vegetables you have on hand or use frozen peas and/or carrots like I did. Combine veggies with shredded turkey and leftover gravy, heat and pour over steamed dumplings simply made with everyone's favorite pantry staple, Bisquick!
For the dumplings:
2 cups Bisquick
2/3 cup milk
12" skillet with tight fitting lid
Metal steamer basket
Combine Bisquick with milk to form a soft dough. Place a metal steamer basket inside a 12 inch skillet, fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer basket and bring to a boil. Spray steamer basket with Pam. Using a large spoon also coated with Pam, drop the dough directly onto the steamer, making 4-6 dumplings. Cover skillet and steam for 5-10 minutes. They're done when each dumpling is pillowy soft, dry to the touch and a toothpick comes out clean when stuck in the middle.
Now all that's left to do is mix shredded turkey, gravy and veggies in a small saucepan. Heat on medium to piping hot.
To plate, place a dumpling in a shallow bowl and top with the gravy mixture. Enjoy!
