Seems my blogging lately has been related to our food days at work. This month's theme is our mother's best recipe. Unfortunately, the two recipes that I think are mom's best aren't suitable for the bus trip into the office.I did my recipe prep over a couple of evenings. First I cooked the chicken, cooled it and refrigerated the broth overnight. I got a big ol' slab of fat from the top resulting from the night in the fridge. I picked the chicken and then put everything together the night before taking it to work.
Of course, I had to do a sampling to make sure it as fit to take to work <grin>. As luck would have it, my eating a bowl reduced the quantity just enough for the remaining chicken and dumplings to fit into the Tupperware bowl for transporting. I was thrilled to have kept myself from having seconds!
I can't wait for our potluck tomorrow and having another serving of this comforting dish!
