The Diet Dumpling Gang

Yummy dumplings for your diet plan.

Dumplings are one of the easiest things to prepare in the kitchen.  A bit of flour, a bit of vegetable shortening or butter, a dash of salt and a rolling pin - and we've suddenly got dumplings.

Unfortunately, flour contains 1/2 the calories as sugar when compared cup to cup.  Sugar weighs in at about 800 calories per cup and flour at about 400 calories per cup. If it weren't for the crust on MOST pies, the calorie content could be slashed in half.

So like pie crusts, dumplings are consist chiefly of flour and will quickly add pounds. However, that doesn't mean that a dieter must avoid dumplings when dieting.  Here's our savvy Dumpling Diet Tip:

Diet Dumplings: Use two regular biscuits (not the super-sized Paul Bunyon ones) (keep in mind that grand-sized biscuits generate grand-sized hips, thighs and lips).

Roll out the biscuits using minimal flour and a rolling pin until the biscuits are as flat as you can get them.  Slice into strips.

You can use dumplings to make Apple Dumplings OR chicken and dumplings. For chicken and dumplings, use 2 cans of fat free chicken broth; bring to a boil and carefully drop in dumplings. Allow dumplings to puff and cook until done. Be sure to use a non-stick pot OR cook in your microwave.  Make certain that broth goes over dumplings while cooking.  Add boned chicken, salt and pepper and a dash of milk if desired.

For Apple Dumplings, prepare in much the same way using the broth from boiled apples.  Season with cinnamon and no calorie butter.  Sweeten with Splenda or Equal. Thicken with a bit of cornstarch and water, if needed.
