Before going into a description of this recipe, I want to thank Chef #192264 for inspiring me with her Chicken and Dumplings recipe. If it wasn't for her, I would never be able to make dumplings.Now to go on with my description for this recipe.Sometimes you just want some other type of meat besides chicken with dumplings, so I came up with this. You could make the dumplings the drop type,but I suggest rolling the dough out. It makes for a more evenly cooked finished dumpling. If you try this I sure hope you enjoy it. :) Submitted to ZAAR on December 23, 2008.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup shortening

1/2 lb ground beef
3/4 cup of finely chopped white onion
1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
6 cups beef broth
1 1/2 cups leftover mixed vegetables, like corn, peas, carrots, and lima beans
Directions:
1. Mix together flour,salt and shortening in a large bowl until small crumbs are formed.

4. Let dry for about 30 minutes.
5. While the dumpling dough is drying , take a large pot and add remaining ingredients except for the beef broth and veggies.

7. Cook ground beef until browned and onions are tender, drain if needed.
