Homemade Chicken & Dumplings

I am one of those wonderful wives who makes foods that she hates because her husband loves them. Nick loves chicken and dumplings. I have never made this because I do not like it. Dumplings are too mushy for me. So I finally sucked it up and made him some of one of his all-time favorite meals.

Even though I don't like it, I did eat it. The kids and Nick loved it and raved about it - so you will have to take their word for it.

Yum, we love chicken and dumplings at our house, in fact we have it on our menu this week. I can vouch that this is good, because it's the exact same recipe I use. It's an oldie but a goodie.

<3 This is something I have yet to make. However, I really want to make it one day. My mom made it from scratch when I was a kid and I just loved it. Thanks for sharing, Sarah!
