Menu Plan Monday and a Recipe!

Last week we didn't wind up eating the beef stroganoff or country breakfast. I know we didn't do country breakfast because we had eaten all our biscuits with the chicken and dumplings- poor planning. And Friday i didn't get home until late, and didn't feel like cooking. Hopefully, we will be better at sticking to the plan this week! 

Sunday: Eating Out

Monday: Country Breakfast

Tuesday: pulled pork sandwiches sweet potato fries

Wednesday: Dragon Noodles

Thursday: leftovers

Friday: YOYO (You're On Your Own- I'm going out for a friend's birthday)

Saturday: Family birthday party

Sunday: Fried chicken and Cheddar Bay Biscuits

-----------------------------------------------

Last week we had Chicken and Dumplings for the first time ever. As in, neither of us have never even eaten it before! We used this recipe, but tweaked it a bit to make it a little more flavorful.

Ingredients:

1lb of Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts (about 2-3)

2 cans (10.5oz) Condensed Cream of Chicken Soup

1 can (14oz) Chicken Broth

1 medium White Onion, diced

4 Large Flaky Refrigerator Biscuits (half a can) (we used 5 Pillsbury Buttermilk Grands)

*We seasoned the chicken with Salt, pepper, dried oregano, garlic powder and a little bit of dried basil.

Place thawed chicken in crock pot.  

Top with cream of chicken soup, chicken broth and diced onions.*We added half packet of Lipton Recipe Secrets Savory Herb with Garlic Soup and Dip Mix that we had on hand.

Cook on High for 4-6 hours or Low for 8 hours.  Do not stir while cooking. 

Cut each uncooked biscuit into 9 small pieces and stir into the chicken mixture.  Continue to cook on High for 30 minutes.  Remove chicken from slow-cooker and shred with a fork.  Return to slow-cooker and stir everything together.  Serve hot.

Makes about 6-8 servings.

Not that I have anything to compare it to, but I thought this was absolutely delicious. We added a lot of pepper to spice it up a bit too. It was super hearty and filling. And super easy to make! Definitely a great meal for a cold night!
