There comes a time when you need a fast meal. I mean, really fast. A meal that consists of items you have right in your pantry and fridge, or things you can grab in less than 10 minutes at the grocery store. Oh, and a meal that your toddler won’t throw on the floor when you serve it to them. This quick and easy chicken and dumplings recipe is one of those meals.

See, I have this kid who likes what he likes. He’s very particular about the dinners we eat, and the snacks we serve him, and even the diapers he wears. Doesn’t he sound like a peach? Well, he is, but he can challenge me when it’s time for dinner. I have to think smart. I have to save recipes that are staples for him, and the rest of the family, and make sure he gets his fair share during dinner.

This recipe was sent to us by the ALDI Test Kitchen as part of their Kids Craves meals. Can I tell you why I pretty much fell in love with this recipe? It contains pantry items that I already had. Canned veggies, biscuits, chicken breast, and even canned cream of mushroom soup. These are items we add to the cart during our weekly ALDI shopping trip.

Just kidding.
