Chicken and Dumpling Soup Recipe

Our five kids are grown and live away from the farm, but they visit often with their families. So I stay in practice in the kitchen! I frequently serve this soup for Sunday dinner.

Think next time I might try using Cream of Broccoli Soup instead of Cream of Potato (too starchy w/dumplings or noodles). Also, was glad I cut up biscuits into smaller pieces because the dumplings are very filling - especially small children. Used frozen broccoli/cauliflower/carrot mix - also used whole 3-4 lb chicken instead of cut chicken (wasn't sure what cuts worked best so just used whole bird).

Its a nice hearty soup that was nice to serve my family of 8 - all suffering (literally - its a nightmare!) w/flu.

Thanks for sharing your recipe - we enjoyed it very much.
