What's better during the fall than a warm, tasty soup? This budget-friendly recipe is fairly easy.

Ingredients

Stew 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 fennel bulb, diced 1 onion, diced 2 stalks celery, diced 4 cups diced butternut squash 1 teaspoon ground sage 4 cups low sodium chicken broth 4 cups water 1 teaspoon salt (optional) ½ teaspoon ground black pepper 2 bay leaves 4 cups chopped kale (1 bunch, stemmed and chopped) Dumplings 1 cup whole wheat flour ½ cup all purpose flour 1 tablespoon baking powder 1 teaspoon salt (optional) ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper 1 teaspoon herbs d’provence (or dried sage) 1 large egg ½ cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt ½ cup water

Instructions

Add oil to a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Add fennel, onion and celery to oil and sauté until onions turn clear (around 4-5 minutes). Add butternut squash, sage, chicken broth, water, salt (optional), black pepper and bay leaves. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Simmer stew for 20 minutes, then add kale and simmer 10 more minutes. While stew is simmering, whisk together all dumpling ingredients to form a stiff batter. Set aside. After kale simmers for 10 minutes remove bay leaf. Use a ¼ cup measure to scoop dumplings on top of stew to make 8 dumplings. Do not stir once dumplings have been added to the top of the stew. Cover and reduce to a low simmer for 10 minutes until dumplings are cooked through and puffed. Recipe Cost: $10.40 Side Suggestion: Serve with a green salad with low fat honey mustard dressing.
