EASY 20 min Homestyle Chicken & Dumplings

I have NEVER MADE this before, but my husband always wants it. Today is his lucky day because I felt inventive and adventurous. Here's what you need (in order of steps)

Large Carrot (sliced)
1/4c Yellow Onion (chopped)
2.5 cups Water
1 Swanson Flavor Boost Chicken Stock Packet
1 can of Cream of Chicken soup
1 large chicken breast (cubed down to bite size chucks)
3/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
4 tbsp flour

DUMPLINGS- {{ 2.5c Bisquick 2/3c milk- maybe more to form a stiff dough}

In a large stock pot mix carrot, onion, water and flavor packet
Bring to a boil
Add 1 can of Campbells Cream of Chicken
 **Dumplings-  Mix until stiff dough forms, knead 3 times then roll until 1/2" thick, slice into strips or squares 1"x1"
 Drop into boiling broth 
Add chick to pot
Simmer for 10-15 minutes
season with salt & pepper to taste
we were so enticed by the amazing aroma I forgot to take photos, had to grab a shot of my 3 yr old's bowl. you can see her little reflection in the spoon.
if needed (remove some broth and pour into a small bowl, mix well with flour until paste forms, slowly add paste to simmering pot until desired thickness is reached.
