Crock Pot...I think I love you!

One of my new favorite recipe websites is called Crock Pot Girls. If you haven't seen it yet...its a must have!!!! Today I tried their Easy Crock Pot Chicken and Dumplings recipe. I've been sick for the past couple of days so this comfort food was perfection!!!!! Enjoy!!!!

Easy Crock Pot Chicken and Dumplings

4-6 chicken breasts (I used frozen)
2 cans cream of chicken soup
half of a chopped onion
some garlic
1 can of pilsbury grand biscuits cut into quarters
3 cups of water
3 cubes of chicken bullion

Place chicken in crock pot along with everything else except the biscuits. Cook on high for 5-6 hours. Shred chicken (I always just use forks) then add biscuits. Make sure you dunk the biscuits in to cover them with the sauce. Continue cooking for 30 minutes. Serve and enjoy!!!
