Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 carrots, chopped
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • 1 cup chopped kale
  • For the Dumplings:
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened plant-based milk
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, and celery and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
  3. Pour in vegetable broth and diced tomatoes. Stir in thyme, rosemary, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
  4. While the stew simmers, prepare the dumplings. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  5. In a separate small bowl, whisk together plant-based milk and olive oil. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Drop spoonfuls of dumpling batter into the simmering stew. Cover the pot and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked through.
  7. Stir in frozen peas, corn, and kale. Cook until heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
  8. Serve hot.

Notes

For extra flavor, add a bay leaf to the stew while it simmers and remove it before serving. You can also substitute other vegetables, such as potatoes, green beans, or mushrooms.
