Skater Lunch Box #37
Dilly stew with dumplings (from Isa Does It). It was supposed to be dilly stew with rosemary dumplings but I had no rosemary.
The thing about stew and dumplings is that it needs nothing else--no sides, no bread, nothing. It is the truest "one pot meal" I know of. This was really good, reminiscent of chicken and dumplings but with white beans. It was always the dumplings that made me want chicken and dumplings, anyway, so this was great for me, but I have also seen some mock chicken and dumplings recipes I'd like to try.
As an aside, it is a little disheartening to have it still be cold enough in March that something like this still seems like a good idea, but I'm making the best of it.

Looks great; I definitely need to try that recipe!
