Easy Chicken & Sage Dumplings

Easy Chicken & Sage Dumplings is delicious, comforting, and also super easy to achieve on a weeknight. Take some help from the store to stir up a pot of cozy magick.

Let's be honest. The best food is usually ugly food. As much as we now live in a visual world where everything needs to be Instagram ready, I still think it's humble bowls of old school foods that taste the best. Our ancestors have been making bowls of ugly, lumpy, brown food for centuries, and all that practice has given us some of the best flavors.

But we've forgotten about these simple dishes that our grandparents relied on because they're not beautiful. They don't get attention because they're not sexy. Luckily, witches don't have to worry about being hot. They only have to concern themselves with what truly makes them feel good. And for me, a lot of the time, that's ugly food.

What makes Easy Chicken & Sage Dumplings so awesome?

This bowl of Easy Chicken & Sage Dumplings is not winning any beauty contests, but it is deeply satisfying. Made simple with chicken, vegetables, and stock, the soup is prettybasic. It's those dumplings that are the real star of the show. Spiked with dried sage, they bring incredible flavor and heartiness to the party.

And because we're keeping it simple with basic ingredients and taking some help from the store with store bought stock and pre-cooked chicken, we can totally make this on a weeknight. Use good quality stock for the best flavor. Serve this alongside some crusty bread and good salted butter. What else could you possibly need?

Magical Properties of Sage

Sage is probably the first herb people think about when they think about witchcraft. It's even become a verb to take the place of smoke cleansing. Ruled by Jupiter and the element of air, sage brings wisdom and healing. But it's probably best known for its cleansing properties. Use sage for purification rituals to banish negative energy. Any type of sage will do. I encourage you to use sustainable and ethical sage in your witchcraft practice.
