Ingredients

1 cup sliced carrots
1/2 cup coarsely chopped red onion
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 (8-oz.) package cooked cubed ham
1 (16-oz.) package frozen baby lima beans
1 (16-oz.) package frozen butter peas
1 cup frozen black-eyed peas
1 (32-oz.) container reduced-sodium chicken broth
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh rosemary
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

Prepare Cassoulet: Sauté carrots and onion in hot oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat 3 to 4 minutes or until tender. Add garlic, and sauté 1 minute. Add ham, and cook, stirring often, 3 minutes. Stir in lima beans and next 6 ingredients; bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer, stirring occasionally, 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare Dumplings: Whisk together flour and next 5 ingredients in a medium bowl. Cut butter into flour mixture with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in rosemary; add buttermilk, and stir just until dough is moistened.
Drop dough by tablespoonfuls 1/2 to 1 inch apart into bean mixture. Cover and simmer 15 to 20 minutes or until dumplings are done and dry to the touch. Serve immediately.
