Dads Chicken Dumpling Dinner Recipe

Add Step-by-Step Photos	Lovethedepp / All my dishes 1 year, 1 month ago Definitely a great fall/winter, stick to your ribs type of comfort food casserole. The dumplings have a different "potato" twist. You could add more or different veggies if you like. I often add green beans or mushrooms. This makes alot...

This recipe is almost enough to make me glad the cool fall weather is back. Almost. Seriously, though, it sounds wonderful - love the hash browny/cheesy dumplings, AND the fact that they're baked, not boiled. Great post, thanks!
