Love comfort foods?

This Crockpot Chicken and Dumplings recipe is packed full of veggies and is a cinch to make!

I’m one of those moms who likes to use her crockpot all year long — don’t you?

I use it almost every Thursday for dinner on our Awana nights.

I also like to put it to use on the weekends since we really pack on the errands!

After a long day of getting our “to do” lists done, it’s tough to get a hearty meal on the table.

My crockpot is just an everyday kind of hero and it works wonders with this chicken and dumplings recipe!

It swoops in with its super high or low heating, and cooks dinner perfectly — every time.

Ingredients Needed for Crock Pot Chicken and Dumplings

3 boneless, skinless, chicken breast-cut into large chunks

2 tbsp butter, diced

2 cans (15 oz) cream of chicken

1 can (15 oz) chicken broth

2 carrots, peeled and sliced 1/2 inch thick

1 small onion, diced

2 stalks celery, sliced 1/2 inch thick 

1 cup frozen peas

1 tsp garlic powder

salt and pepper to taste

1/2 tsp dried thyme

1/2 tsp dried rosemary

2 tbsp all-purpose flour

1/4 cup water

1 container of buttermilk biscuits, quartered and seasoned with salt and pepper

How to Make Crockpot Chicken and Dumplings

• Place chicken on the bottom of crockpot.
• Place all chopped carrots, onion, celery, and peas on top of chicken.
• Season with  garlic powder, salt and pepper, thyme and rosemary.
• Dot butter over veggies and cover with cream of chicken and broth. Cover and cook on high for 3 hours.

Aside from a little veggie chopping(which you could always do ahead of time), this dinner comes together very easily.

Another perk?

I’m sorry to say that there weren’t any leftovers by the time we were done with it.
