I am all about something simple, easy, and filling. I need something that doesn't leave me wanting more in an hour and if it can cook all day while I take care of my house, work, and an infant- that's even better. I love the crockpot, it is my best friend all year round. I know most people wait until it is cool outside and it can be used for soups but there are so many other delicious things you can make. Stay tuned, y'all.

Ingredients:

• 1 (32 oz) container chicken broth

• 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of chicken soup with herbs

• 1 cup diced onion

• 1 cup diced celery

• 3-4 frozen chicken breasts

• 1-2 tsp garlic salt

• 1/2 tsp black pepper

• 1 cup frozen peas and carrots (optional)

• 1/2 cup all purpose flour

• 1 (16 0z) tube refrigerated Pillsbury Grands Biscuits

Directions:

1. Place chicken broth, cream of chicken soup, diced onions and celery into a 5-6 quart slow cooker. Stir well (it will be a bit lumpy from the cream of chicken soup.)

2. Add frozen chicken breasts into crock pot and season with a little salt and pepper.

3. Cover and cook on low for about 4-6 hours (until chicken is fully cooked through.)

4. Then take the chicken out and cut it into bite size pieces or shred it with a couple of forks. Put the chicken back into the slow cooker. Add frozen vegetables into the slow cooker if you are using.

5. Take the biscuits and flatten each one with the palm of your hand. Then cut the biscuits into strips then cut down the center.

6. Put flour into a bowl and place slices of biscuits into the flour and toss them to coat well with the flour.

7. Drop the coated biscuits (one by one into the slow cooker.) Doing this one at a time will keep them from sticking together when you drop them in. The flour is also going to help thicken the broth. Take a spoon and gently push the biscuits down under the broth so the tops get moistened (don’t stir)

8. Cover and cook on high for 1- 1 1/2 hours, check to see if dumplings are done- if not continue to cook

9. Give it all a stir and add dried Parsley if desired.
