Gluten Free Chicken and Dumplings


 

I am definitely one of those people that is happy to eat soup all year long, but when autumn and winter roll around, I really like to amp it up. Soup, all day every day. Is there anything more warming, filling, and comforting than a hot bowl of soup?

 

Gluten Free Chicken and Dumplings

 

For this recipe, the goal is delicious, quick and easy chicken and dumplings. We are not looking to spend a lot of time. In fact, I just have 30 minutes to get it made! So with that in mind, I use already cooked chicken in this recipe. You can make your own shredded chicken or you can purchase a pre-cooked chicken, both will work great.
