I like to put everything in before I go to work and then have a meal waiting for me when I get home. You can have it on bread or, if you're cutting back on bread, it's good as a compliment to anything - brown rice, salads, etc.

I LOVE chicken & dumplings so when I found this I added my own spin to it and lowered the fat and calories. This is the best chicken and dumplings I've ever had which is amazing since I'm never satisfied with my cooking! You can have a full cup of this hearty comfort food for only 284 calories and 3.8 grams of fat! The sodium could be reduced if homemade biscuits are used instead of the canned biscuits, but if sodium isn't a problem this is a very fast and easy way to make chicken & dumplings!

Use all chickpeas if you don't have fava beans. If you use canned beans, the sodium levels will be higher so omit the salt.
