Ingredients
  • 3
    cups peeled butternut or acorn squash cut into 1/2-inch cubes
  • 2
    cups sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 2
    14 1/2 ounce can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1
    15 ounce can Great Northern beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1
    cup water
  • 4
    cloves garlic, minced
  • 1
    teaspoon dried Italian seasoning, crushed
  • 1/4
    teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2
    cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3
    cup cornmeal
  • 2
    tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1
    tablespoon snipped fresh parsley
  • 1
    teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4
    teaspoon salt
  • 1
    egg
  • 2
    tablespoons milk
  • 2
    tablespoons cooking oil
  • 1
    9 ounce package frozen Italian green beans or frozen cut green beans
  • Paprika
Directions

1. In a 3-1/2- or 4-quart slow cooker, combine squash, mushrooms, undrained tomatoes, Great Northern beans, the water, garlic, Italian seasoning, and pepper.

2. Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 8 to 10 hours or on high-heat setting for 4 to 5 hours.

3. For dumplings: In a medium bowl, stir together flour, cornmeal, Parmesan cheese, parsley, baking powder, and salt. In a small bowl, whisk together egg, milk, and oil. Add to the flour mixture; stir with a fork just until combined.

4. If using low-heat setting, turn to high-heat setting. Stir frozen green beans into stew. Drop the dumpling dough into six mounds on top of the stew. Sprinkle with paprika. Cover and cook for 50 minutes more. (Do not lift lid while dumplings are cooking.) Makes 6 servings.

Really Enjoyed this recipe! My father hates stew but he liked this one. I added extra veggies like celery and cauliflower. Turned out very filling! Highly Recommended!

Eh.... It was ok, but just ok. Seemed to be lacking something or a lot of somethings. It didn't seem to have a very full flavor like I would expect in a crock pot stew. The dumplings weren't super either. Definitely edible but I won't make this recipe again, although I will definitely look for more stew recipes that contain butternut squash.
