  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped green pepper
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 can (28 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 tablespoon minced celery leaves
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • Meanwhile, for dumplings, combine flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl; cut in shortening until crumbly. Add cheddar cheese. Stir in milk just until moistened.
