Chicken and Dumplings and Tumbling

It's Tuesday so we're off to tumbling and Gerald will still need to eat even if I'm not here...  


I found an interesting recipe for Chicken and Dumplings for the crock pot and thought tonight would be a perfect night to try it out.  I tasted it a bit ago and although it's not as good as grandma's it's pretty tasty.   


{Gerald went to Walmart and 'grocery shopped' alone the other night.  I use this term loosely because it basically means he wandered the aisles tossing in various items that looked appealing and did not use a single coupon.  He came home with a box mix for Chicken and Dumplings and I rest assured he will like this version much better.}


Chicken and Dumplings Crock Pot Style
4-6 chicken breasts (boneless, skinless of course)
2 cans cream of chicken soup
1 can chicken broth
salt, pepper, parsley, poultry seasoning
biscuits from the refrigerator section of your favorite grocer

Cut chicken in half and lay in the crock pot.  Sprinkle salt, pepper, parsley and poultry seasoning to your liking.  Add both cans of soup and chicken broth.  Cook on high for 5-6 hours or low for 8-10 hours.  About  90 minutes before serving (if using High setting) tear biscuits into pieces and gently push into the liquid with spoon.  When the biscuits are cooked, you're ready to dish up and enjoy!

I bought the small biscuits and actually used 2 cans adding one, letting it cook for a while and then adding the other.  I stirred it a couple of times to keep the 'dumpings' from clumping into one huge dumping.
