Slow Cooker Recipes: Chicken and Dumplings
Comfort food and slow cooker recipes go hand in hand. This slow cooker recipe for Chicken and Dumplings, is phenomenal.
My husband and I made a few changes. We wanted vegetables, we were out of cream of chicken soup, and I definitely wanted to make my own biscuits for this one.
The result is comfort food at its finest! We all agreed that we could easily make this every other week for awhile and no one would be upset about it. High praise, indeed! The original recipe is from Bubble Crumb Blog.
