Receta Creamy Chicken and Vegetables
This recipe uses the Creamy Sauce-Dairy Free that I recently posted. I lightened my traditional Chicken and Dumplings recipe by using the Creamy Sauce rather than the traditional fat and flour based roux. It was the perfect meal for a cold winter night, and everyone agreed it was just as good as the original version. This is a perfect use for leftover cooked chicken and vegetables that you have on hand or are in season. I used leftover roast chicken and leftover steamed green beans, along with carrot, onion and potato. It was quick, easy, and healthy.
