In a Dutch oven brown meat in oil; drain. Stir in undrained tomatoes, celery, onion, bouillon granules, oregano, garlic, 2 cups water, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Bring to boiling. Simmer, covered, 1-1/2 hours or till meat is tender. Combine flour and 3/4 cup water; stir into stew. Cook and stir till thick and bubbly.

Prepare dumplings,(see below) adding 1/4 cup cheese to flour mixture. Add zucchini to stew; return to boiling. Drop dumpling batter from a tablespoon to make 4 mounds atop boiling stew. Cover; simmer for 10 to 12 minutes(DO Not lift cover till time to check) or till a toothpick comes out clean. Sprinkle cheese on dumplings. Serves 4.

Dumplings:
In a medium bowl stir together the flour, parsley, baking powder, salt and thyme. In a small bowl combine the milk and cooking oil; add to flour mixture. Stir with a fork just till combined.
