I love good chicken and dumplings ... and will go the extra mile to make them fresh and start them FROM SCRATCH. But sometimes, I just want a quickie batch to satisfy that craving ... when I need comfort food in a hurry! LOL! This is a simple recipe I found on the back of a bag of frozen biscuits. It is very tasty, and very flexible and adaptable if you want to add other ingredients.
