My recipe today is for a quick and dirty sort of chicken and dumpling soup using frozen bagged dumplings (such as the Reames brand).
I am not really sure how available these are outside of the Midwest. But you can feel free to use another brand or make your own. I think may be gnocci or thick egg noodles might also suffice. Possibly even cut biscuit dough or drop dumplings if you prefer.
This is all meant to be very comfort food and it’s something I made after shopping using the rotisserie chicken grabbed at the market. If you change up your dumplings, be aware the cook time might change so just test the doneness as you go.

Chicken and dumplings is the epitome of comfort food.
I just checked my local grocery store apps and one has frozen Reames homestyle egg noodles which look very much like your dumplings on the package. I wonder if they’ve called them that for our market because southern dumplings are more like drop biscuits. Your soup is a big bowl of comfort food, right up my alley!
Check Kroger if you have them. There are two kinds and the dumplings are in a red and yellow bag and the egg noodles come in blue and red.
Or perhaps Wal-Mart or Whole Foods. Google maps shows if you search “Reames dumplings” near me
The Kroger app is where I found only the one Reames product, the egg noodles, for pick up at my local store. I’ll have a look at Walmart and Whole Foods too.
The egg noodle will make a fine chix noodle soup- just adjust the cook time if its different
The perfect piping hot bowl of comfort. I love how easy it is to make as well.
This looks just lovely!
