When it comes to comfort food, few things beat the satisfaction of a warm, flavorful dumpling. It's no surprise these savory pockets have made waves in recent years, from becoming viral at Trader Joe's to making Whole Foods' top 10 list of predicted food trends in 2025. But for those who need or prefer gluten-free options, finding dumplings that hit the spot can be a challenge. That's why Feel Good Foods' new chicken soup dumplings caught my eye. As the first-ever gluten-free soup dumplings on the market, they promise a delicious, convenient and allergen-friendly option. With high hopes and an appetite for something cozy, I had to give them a try. Here's my review of the new Feel Good Foods' gluten-free chicken soup dumplings.

All about Feel Good Foods' gluten-free soup dumplings

Feel Good Foods has made a name for itself as a pioneer in gluten-free frozen foods. With a history rooted in founder Vanessa Phillips' search for gluten-free options after her Celiac diagnosis, the company has crafted an impressive lineup of products -- from mozzarella sticks to mini pancakes -- all designed to deliver flavor without gluten.

What makes these dumplings truly unique, however, is their wrapper. Using a rice flour blend, they've developed a gluten-free wrapper that mimics the chewy, tender texture of traditional dumplings. And with fillings made from chicken raised without antibiotics and a savory broth with hints of scallion and ginger, these dumplings promise to deliver authentic flavor without artificial additives. All in all, these dumplings have a lot going for them before you even take the first bite.

A perfect solution for quick meals or snacks

One of the major perks of these dumplings is their ease of preparation. Whether you need a quick lunch, light dinner or a savory snack, these dumplings are microwave-ready in just three minutes, thanks to their built-in steamer tray. All it takes is popping the tray in the microwave, and you're ready to dig in -- no extra dishes, no hassle. For those busy days when time is tight or you need an office lunch, it's a huge plus.

Each six-ounce package contains six dumplings, offering a generous portion that can work as a small meal or a satisfying side to complement your favorite dish. At 270 calories per serving, they're also a sensible choice, allowing you to enjoy a filling snack without overdoing it. I personally served mine

Trying Feel Good Foods' gluten-free soup dumplings

I first brought these for my lunch on an in-office work day. In terms of convenience, the instructions were very straightforward. Instead of lifting a corner of the protective film, I just had to puncture three holes for steaming. I also only needed to microwave the soup dumplings once before waiting for them to cool. And let me tell you, the aroma of ginger and broth instantly drew me in, and I couldn't wait to dig in. I would suggest checking your microwave's wattage. After two minutes, some of my dumplings had broke and spilled in the tray -- but that didn't bother me, personally.

My first bite was not disappointing -- in fact, they didn't even taste like frozen dumplings. The wrapper was pleasantly chewy, just as promised, and melted in my mouth. I know one of the main concerns with gluten-free varieties is the flavor. But if you hadn't told me they were gluten-free, I wouldn't have known. In my opinion, these chicken soup dumplings were better than Trader Joe's. The chicken, scallion and ginger filling was deliciously and evenly portioned. Nothing is worse than a soup dumpling with no soup.

After eating them quickly, I didn't feel overly full or bad about myself. They balance that bold, savory element of Chinese cuisine without being overly salty or greasy like most takeout, which is a plus in my book. I even (admittedly) brought the tray up and drank the leftover broth. As a reminder with soup dumplings in general, always have napkins nearby -- the experience can get a bit messy.

Final thoughts: a must-try for soup dumpling lovers

Overall, Feel Good Foods' new gluten-free chicken soup dumplings are a delicious addition to the frozen aisle, especially for those in need of gluten-free options. They offer an easy, allergen-friendly way to enjoy the rich flavors of chicken and broth without the hassle of preparation. Whether you're gluten-free, love simply looking for a healthier spin on comfort food, these dumplings are worth a spot in your freezer. Available at major retailers and online, they're ready whenever you're craving something cozy and satisfying. For me, they're a keeper. My second time I even added soy sauce and chili crisp to top it off.
