Unfortunately Food Network will not allow zero stars as a rating, so that is the only reason I am giving a one star. This recipe is the worst that I have yet to try from Food Network's wide array of recipes. After reading the ingredients and the quantities that are called for, I should have trusted my gut instinct and known that the "dough" would not bind together properly. I followed the directions exactly and ended up with a pot full of mush floating on top of simmering water. This is the last time I will try one of Aida Mollencamp's ideas for Italian food. The sauce however was good, after modifying the seasonings.

I had no expectations as to how these would taste. The only time I've made dumplings has been on top of a chicken stew. It was definitely a bit of work to bring this all together (especially if you fresh grate the cheese, but well worth it. The dumplings were melt in the mouth tender and the flavor had a good balance of cheese and tomato sauce. My only complaint is that although I followed to the letter, I only wound up with 20 dumplings. I could have eaten that many myself but had to share with the family.

Made this last night. OMGoodness this was awesome! I used one box of frozen chopped spinach, cooked, drained, squeezed dry, and chopped again. The recipe was right on...I ended up with 28 dumplings which are now long gone! I followed the recipe to a T other than substituting the spinach for arugula. Do not mess with the recipe. It's absolutely perfect. This was flavorful and suprisingly light. Thank you Aida!

I watched Saturday's show and thought this sounded really good.
I used spinach instead of Arugula b/c its really hard to find in our small town. My dumplings were not near as neat as her's were but they tasted very good! I didn't want a tomato based sauce for them so I mixed together some Ricotta (that I bought for the no recipe recipe of large shells and cheese lemon juice, minced garlic, a tablespoon of whole milk, and a teeny bit of butter, and turkey bacon. I spooned that over the dumplings and added the Mozzarella.
I'll keep this recipe!

I made this with spinach instead of arugula, and followed the rest of the recipe with terrific results! I had watched the show prior to making this and got the tip that the dumplings are done once they float, plus 30 seconds. Also, you put them into simmering water, not boiling. The dumplings were perfect and not one fell apart. Great recipe, I will definitely make again.

My family loved this recipe; she even asked for seconds. It was easy to make, and I loved that the dumplings did not fall apart.

I tweaked the recipe a bit.
To the sauce I added green pepper, extra garlic, 2 chicken bouillon cubes, and an additional can of crushed tomatoes. This way I had sauce left over sauce. After watching another food network show, I learned that it is much easier, and tastier, to make my own sauce.

To the dumplings I only changed out arugula for frozen spinach. After squeezing it of excess water, I measured out 6 ounces of spinach.

If you are looking for something that does not contain meat, but has substance, this is a really good recipe.

As soon as I saw this show I could not wait to try this recipe. My roommates loved it and was an intant hit and added to our "Must Make Again" list. The sauce was easy and so tasty. The only thing I may do different next time is add basil. The dumplings were a breeze to make. (I used spinach instead of arugula since I had that in the fridge. In fact, it is also a great recipe b/c it is it is all items stocked in my house.
