Chicken and dumplings is the perfect comfort food. It’s a hearty, warm, filling meal that reminds me of childhood. The way I used to make it was high in fat and calories. It had butter, cream of chicken soup and regular biscuits. Don’t get me wrong…it was delicious! The good news is my lightened up version is still delicious!!
I make my chicken and dumplings in the crock pot. It makes for an easy weeknight meal. My favorite part is coming home from work, opening the door and smelling dinner. And it smells so good!
