@ruby3881, I just boil my chicken with with seasoning, like poultry seasoning, lemon pepper, etc. When it’s done, I then take the meat off the bone, add to the seasoned water and add chicken bouillon cubes, carrots and celery. Then boil it to boil the dumplings.

As a teenager and into my early 20’s I suffered depression. As a child growing up, my parents told me “it was all in my head!” Boy, were they right..depression is a chemical imbalance in the brain. It is also known to possibly be hereditary. I tend to believe that it is hereditary as my father suffered from it, I suffered from it and my olde…[Read more]

I’m not sure that I’ve ever met a chicken dish I didn’t enjoy! I do love an oven roasted chicken. That’s a comfort food for me. And homemade chicken noodle soup is also comforting. I love to make it with plenty of veggies and nice, broad noodles.
Fried chicken is a treat. We don’t eat it often, and I’m sure my arteries are happy for that! My…[Read more]

@4cryingoutloud Do you make your chicken any particular way when you cook this dish? My mother always used to buy a canned or jarred chicken, only for when she cooked chicken and dumplings. I’m not even sure that she knows why (probably my grandmother used chicken she’d canned…)
I don’t make dumplings with plain stewed chicken very often, but I…[Read more]
@peachpurple Your porridge with peanuts and minced meat sounds interesting. Do you make it with rice, or with some other grain?
Most people here think oats when they hear the words “porridge,” but my mother grew up eating a cereal called Red River. It’s a blend of grains that includes wheat, rye and flaxseed. She always said there was millet too,…[Read more]

Hi!
Is that photo that you had uploaded- is Chicken dumpling soup?
Looks very comfy and nutritious.
Yes, I love ice-cream too on hot days.
However, I can’t take the whole tub because my teeth aren’t strong enough to resist the coldness.
So, I would buy McD ice cream cone, vanilla flavor and gobble up the whole ice cream cone in 2…[Read more]

Those are great numbers for parties and dinners.

Stew or braise or fried?
Do you have the recipe?
I would like to try this and do you make them or…[Read more]

There are certain foods that we may eat/like that give us comfort. Either it was from our childhood that we associate the food with or there’s just something about the food that makes us all “warm and fuzzy” inside.
Now, I have some comfort foods that I like, but they some times are different depending on the season. In the winter months when i…[Read more]
