Simple Soup with Halushky (Dumplings)

Simple and quick to make, yet really tasty! Soup with halushky is one of my favorites. On top of being delicious, it comes together in no time. When you're short on time, or you get home tired from work, halushky come to the rescue.

Chicken broth makes by far the TASTIEST version, but you can also do a vegetable or mushroom one. I wouldn't recommend a fish broth, though that's just my personal taste.

The dough takes no time at all — mix the ingredients and it's ready. You don't even shape the dumplings; you just pinch off bits by hand or with a spoon dipped in cold water.

The soup is fast to make — the main thing is having broth on hand. Sauté your vegetables (onion, carrot, a bit of pepper), add spices, and drop in the halushky. Done.
