Semi-Homemade Saturday: Cheater's Chicken and Dumplings

The is my first ever post in "Semi-Homemade Saturday".  My name is Tia AKA Story of a Girl and I will be your Semi-Homemade Chef!

The dish I have made is for this post is, what I like to call, 

CHEATER'S CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS

This is a super fast and amazingly easy spin on the real deal.  I just know every true southern woman is pulling her hair and yelling "NOOOOO!!"  


Don't worry your pretty little heads though!  It's not so bad.  It may not be from scratch or true southern cookin' BUT it is quick, easy, and will warm you up super fast on a crisp, cool fall day!  


This is a photo of the ingredients I used:


I can make enough to feed 4 of us with left overs by using
12oz Reames Noodles (found in the freezer section)
2 cans of premium chunk white chicken chopped up a bit
6 chicken bouillon cubes
2-3 tsp cornstarch mixed with enough cold water to liquify the starch
salt to taste

Follow directions on noodle package for the Reames noodles.
Add 1 bouillon cube to water and let melt before adding the noodles.
When noodles are done (about 20 minutes) add the other 5 bouillon cubes and the white chunk chicken.
Let simmer for about 5 minutes
Then you want to make the liquid starch mix and pour it into the pot and stir.
Let it simmer for a few more minutes until you have reached your desired thickness.
For me, this is about a 30-35 minute meal.  Can't beat that!!
I throw green beans and corn on the side but you can easily dump these darlin' little dumplins' over a heaping pile of mashed potatoes, too.  I hope you love these as much as my family and I do!
This is comfort food at its easiest.  Maybe not at its finest BUT still easy and delish!
