Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings
Ok, one caveat before I start. I only now noticed that I was supposed to add water...the 3 breasts I used were covered with the soup so I'm not sure I understand... The chicken is delish but the biscuit dough has been in the crockpot for at least 90 mins, and it looks like its liquifying or becoming mushy. They are not retaining the round ball shape we made them in. Maybe that is how its meant to be? I don't know cos I've never made dumplings before. Maybe I used the wrong biscuit dough - Grands? We only rolled up about half the tin cos in pieces it seemed like a lot. So, in a nutshell, hubby and I like it but we're still waiting for the dumplings to cook through and we're not sure how exactly we'll know..:-) In the meantime we ate the chicken on the left over biscuits that we baked. :-)

Mushroom Barley Soup
Not quite sure about this one. Was easy to make. It tasted a bit oily to me and I didn't over do the olive oil, I think its the beef broth. I cut up the mushrooms a bit finer than sliced and that came out well. The soup seems to lack seasoning - I added salt and pepper but it was still a bit bland. I'm not a very experienced cook, so was not sure what other seasoning would improve the recipe. Not sure I'll make this again...maybe it will taste better when its sat for a while?

Chocolate Bar Pie II
Everyone loved the pie. I would give it a 5 but it didn't set very well even when I left it in the freezer for a while. I am not American and don't love Hersheys so out of everyone I probably enjoyed it the least but everyone else LOVED it.
