MOM'S CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS (SLOW COOKER VERSION)
This is a favorite recipe originally made by my mother with chicken on-the-bone and homemade broth cooked over a stove. I have found I don't have the time to start from scratch and that this version tastes just as good with less fuss! You can substitute freshly cooked chicken, if desired. You can line the slow cooker with a slow cooker liner for easy clean-up.

Steps:
- •Place the chicken in a slow cooker.

Tips:
- Use a good quality chicken broth. The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good one. Look for a broth that is made with real chicken and has a rich flavor.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken is a delicate meat, and it can easily become dry and tough if it's overcooked. Cook the chicken just until it's cooked through, about 10-12 minutes per side.
- Use a variety of vegetables. Vegetables add flavor, color, and nutrients to the soup. Some good choices include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and peas.
- Make sure the dumplings are cooked through. Dumplings are a key part of chicken and dumplings, so it's important to make sure they're cooked through before serving. Cook the dumplings for about 10 minutes, or until they're light and fluffy.
- Season the soup to taste. Once the soup is cooked, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs.
