Turkey with sweet potato dumplings

I love thanksgiving and this a great way to get it easy.

Ingredients:
1 tbls olive oil
1 small yellow onion
Salt and pepper
4 cups raw cooked or frozen vegetables
1 1/2 cups flour
2 cups low sodium chicken broth
3 cups shredded turkey (I used a rotisserie turkey, it saved me time and $$$)
1 cup mashed sweet pototoes
2 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 cups buttermilk

Heat oven to 400 degrees.
Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat.
Add onions salt pepper and cook stirring occasionally until golden 8 to 10 minutes
Add veggies (I used corn, peas, carrots, okra, celery, green beans)
Cook until soft
Sprinkle 1/4 cue flour over veggies stir well cook 2 minutes
Whisk in broth, bring to boil reduce heat and simmer 2 to 3 minutes
Stir in turkey, salt and pepper
Transfer to baking dish

Dumplings:
In large bowl combine 1 1/4 cups flour, cooked and peeled sweet potatoes, baking soda, buttermilk, 1/2 tsp salt and pepper
Do not over mix
Make a thick batter then drop them by the spoonful onto the turkey mixture
Bake until dumplings are golden brown
About 30 minutes
