Great comfort food, and simple.<\/p>\n

4 cups vegetable stock
\n4 cups water
\n1\/2 cup Earth Balance margarine
\n1\/2 cup flour
\n16 oz seitan torn into small pieces, seasoned works fine and this is also optional
\n1 small onion finely diced
\n2 medium carrots peeled and diced into small cubes
\n1 medium potato peeled and diced into small cubes
\n1 1\/2 TSP salt
\n1\/2 TSP black pepper<\/p>\n

Melt Earth Balance in large stock pot over medium heat. Add onions and sute until tender. Add flour and create a roux. Add water and stock and stir until thick. Add all other ingredients and cooked covered over medium-low heat for 20 minutes.<\/p>\n

-Dumplings-
\n1 cup all purpose flour
\n2 TBS shortening (I use Smart Balance)
\n1\/2 TSP baking powder
\n1\/2 TSP salt
\n1\/2 cup soy milk with 1 TBS lemon juice OR 1 TSP apple cider vinegar added<\/p>\n

Mix dry ingredients in a bowl, using a fork cut in the shortening and mix until only small clumps remain. Add milk, you may not use it all so add it slowly, stir until a dough ball forms. Roll out dough on a floured mat or board until about 1\/4 inch thick. Cut rolled dough into 1 inch wide strips and cut strips into smaller strips, about 2-3 inches long. Place dumplings on top of soup and let cook undisturbed for 10 minutes covered. After cooking stir dumplings into soup and cooked covered for 20 minutes on medium-low heat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
