Crockpot Chicken and Dumplings

Comfort foods are rich, filling, easy to make and eat, and delicious. Combine those with the crockpot and you have some sure-fire winners! The crockpot cooks these recipes to perfection, and you hardly have to do a thing.

Make sure you follow basic crockpot rules. Fill the appliance 1/2 to 2/3 (some say 3/4) full, cook as long as the recipe directs, layer foods starting with hard root vegetables and ending with meat and tender ingredients, and don't lift the lid while the food is cooking.

Enjoy these comforting recipes while the holiday season begins, and throughout the long, cold winter!
