2nd NEW FOOD TUESDAY

Chicken and Dumplings and Fresh Dinner Rolls
Yes, it was GOOOOOD!!!!

This meal was like Thanksgiving Dinner....we all wanted to nap after dinner. But with the Carb Load Fest, everyone should be able to run a Triathlon today. You would think this meal is lot of work, but really it isn't.

Put it all in your Crock Pot.  It'll take 6-8 hours, but, sooooo worth it.

Ingredients:

  • 1 can Cream of Chicken
  • 1can Cream of Celery
  • 1 can of Water
  • 4/5 Boneless/Skinless Chicken Breasts
  • 3 1/2 Cups of Chicken Stock
  • Salt/Pepper

Put it all in the Crock Pot and set on LOW for 6-8 Hrs. As the chicken cooks, I shredded it. And you can add, onions, chopped carrots and celery, whatever you would like. I also like to put this over Mashed Potatoes. Talk about Comfort Food.

Dumplings: My gram's recipe

  • 3 Eggs beaten
  • 2 Cups of Flour
  • Dash of salt
  • If needed, a splash of  water.

Let dry on the cutting board.
An hour before the Chicken is done, add the Dumplings.

Roll out the dough and cut into shapes. Whatever, you would like. I cut them into squares, but noodles, Mickey Mouse any shapes are fun. The Dumplings and Flour will thicken up the liquid, so there's no need to add more flour to make it "gravy like".

This recipe served 6 people with a little leftover for lunches the next day.

This meal is YUMMY GOODNESS!!! Great for a cold night to snuggle. But, here in So. Cal, we are at 84 degrees, but, I wanted to make this anyway! I've already had orders from friends, HA HA HA!!!

Enjoy the Ride!
