I love that these dumplings can be made ahead of time. I usually make a big batch on the weekend and then reheat them during the week.

These dumplings are perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. I usually serve them with a side of mashed potatoes and gravy.

I added some chopped green onions to the dumplings and they were delicious. I think next time I'll also add some diced jalapeƱos.

I'm not a huge fan of cheddar cheese, so I used mozzarella instead. The dumplings still turned out great!

Overall, I thought these dumplings were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

I had a hard time getting the dumplings to cook evenly. Some of them were overcooked and some were still raw.

These dumplings were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.
