This was easy enough to put together, and the slow cooker made it effortless to have dinner ready on a busy day. But it wasn't anything my husband and I really enjoyed. I probably won't make it again.

Family loved this. Didn't have stalks of celery so I substituted one of the cans of Cream of Chicken with a can of Cream of Celery. Husband didn't care for the dumplings and want me to add more potatoes. What can I say? He is a meat and potato guy! I will make this one again. Even got my teen-age grandaughter to eat this!

I thought this was very good, I added salt, garlic & onion powders along with the thyme and pepper and it was very flavorful. I put the dumplings in way early after reading all the reviews about them taking over an hour to cook, but they were done perfectly in 30 minutes. The only thing I can think would make a difference is turning the lid of the slow cooker slightly to vent so they don't get soggy from the moisture. I wasn't going to vent the lid, thinking it would just add to the cooking time, but went ahead and did it just to see and it worked perfectly. I vented it very little, just barely turned the lid so there was a little gap. This recipe will definitely be in my dinner rotation now!

This was delicious. I first followed a recipe on here for slow baked whole chicken and used the left overs in this. My only issue was with the potatoes, I cut them smaller than suggested and still they took an additional hour to two hours on HIGH i order to get them even edible. I suggest cutting them much smaller to ensure everything is cooked through. I used cooked chicken left overs from my roast chicken and added them about an hour before I turned the cooker off, just enough to warm the chicken. I skipped the dumplings because the recipe is very filling on it's own.

This is a very good recipe.Set it and forget it. Everything is used was frozen. Frozen onions, mixed vegetables, even the chicken was somewhat frozen. The potatoes were not frozen. I dropped the dumping in when I got home and dinner was done!

This was delicious, I used cream of mushroom and added mushrooms and chicken thighs instead of breasts.

We love this! I usually don't have celery around but I use one can of Cream of Chicken and one can of Cream of Celery and it still turns out great! It's so easy to throw together and let cook during the day. Great recipe to keep on file!!

My family LOVED this recipe! I agree that it was drier (not as soupy) as I would have loved and my cooker was not big enough to hold everything. So, when the veggies and meat were finished, I pulled them out and added a cup of water (would add at least 2 cups next time) to the remaining liquid and then put in my dumplings. The kids couldn't wait to devour the leftovers in their lunch boxes the next day!
