Do you have a, hands down, favorite dish of all time?
I do!
I know that I always talk about how much I love Mexican food, but when it comes to something I could eat everyday if I had to it would be chicken and dumplings.
I make the stew version, during the winter, more often than I can count.
It is the #1 requested meal for family night too. My kids love it just about as much as I do!
So family meal night is rolling around, and the kids had already put their order in for my Chicken and Herbed Dumplings.
Thennnnnn I realize that I have a project that is going to keep me busy until right before dinner time.
It doesn't take a long time to make. But I decided, "Why not try it as a make ahead meal?".
So I made it up to the point of dropping the dumplings and put it covered in my fridge.
When I was ready to make dinner, I pulled it out of the fridge, preheated the oven, made the dumplings, dropped them, and into the oven it went.
Then my time was spent visiting with my kids.
Oh, and eating good food.
Reallllllllllllllly good food!!
