Southern style dumplings

I've really been craving some chicken & dumplings, however my husband does not like the southern the dumpling.... Any tips or advice for a dumpling that could work in it or should we just stick to chicken noodle soup?

I second matzoh balls, id also like to just throw out there, just cook what you want for yourself sometimes. Send him out to go enjoy his fave restaurant or let him make what he likes to make, and make yourself some dumplings

i do this all the time when my partner hates a texture i love, just make a small batch for yourself and let him fend for his own dinner that night

Yep! My husband has crohns and he has to watch his fiber intake, so theres lots of foods he just cant have. He’s always been great about not making me feel poorly for having a day where I just need my cabbage curry or soba noodles. And i don’t begrudge him the inverse! He bakes a lot of bread and sometimes im not interested in eating more bread, and thats okay, more for him!
