Answer 2

Chicken and dumping are easy
Dice - literally dice size - chicken - I use about 2 breasts
boil in about 8-10 cups of water which I season with pureed onion because my son does not like onion (only if he can see it) and pureed garlic - 2 cloves with salt and pepper to taste, sometimes I add a little poultry seasoning like a teaspoon. I also throw in a chicken bouillon cube to help with the flavor
Once the chicken is done mix up some JIffy mix according to the dumpling recipe on the box and then drop by teaspoon full into the boiling broth and chicken. Cook till it thicken up, about 10 min.

Answer 3

Best, kid-friendly, healthy, good tasting meatloaf EVER.

Meatloaf Florentine
3 lbs. Ground meat (I use one pound each of turkey breast, buffalo, and pork)
(the idea is to use very lean meats and use the olive oil and veggies for the moisture, healthier).
1 medium onion, finely diced
1 large clove garlic, minced
6 oz roasted tomatoes (or sun-dried packed in olive oil) with the olive oil
1.5 cups chopped fresh spinach
1/2 cup chopped fresh herbs (mostly basil, plus some rosemary, thyme and sage)
2 eggs
1 cup bread crumbs
1/2 cup grated parmesean (not the stuff in the green can, okay?)
2 tbs. olive oil
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp ground pepper
4 tbs. Ketchup
and a pinch of red pepper flakes if your little one likes spice (mine does)

Saute onion and garlic in olive oil til soft and light golden. Mix all ingredients together and divide in half. Place in two loaf pans. Bake at 350 degrees for 60 minutes, make sure a meat thermometer inserted into the center reads 180 degrees.

Makes two loaves.

Answer 5

dont use canned biscuits.... boil either a whole cut-up chicken or if you prefer just legs and thighs.enough water to cover and add an inch. while chicken is boiling; add either a can of chicken broth, or a couple of bouillion cubes, a 1/2 stick of butter, salt and pepper to taste. when chicken is done let cool and pull meat from bones. i use bisquick but i make my dumplings with the biscuit recipe. just roll them around 1/4 to 1/2 inch. cut into 1x1inch strips. bring your broth to a boil, drop dough into broth, turn down heat and let simmer for ten minutes, add chicken and cook for 5 more minutes. taste once more to make sure the salt and pepper is at your liking.enjoy

Answer 7

There are so many it is basically preference when it comes to meatloaf. I use beef and pork mixture, to that I add onions, when I'm in the mood, some bell peppers, bread crumbs, couple of eggs, dijon mustard, horseradish sauce, ketchup, salt, pepper, maybe some celery at times, parsley, spices to taste, etc. All in personal preference.
As for the chicken and dumplins, I make my own bread dough fresh that morning. I parr boil my chicken to get the liquid, then finish baking in the oven to crisp. Meanwhile, heat the chicken broth liquid to boiling and drop in balls of dough- not too many at a time. Cook ten minutes with lid on- then ten minutes with lid off!
When you're done with the dumplins which can be kept warm in the oven, add the remaining juices from the oven dish from the chicken and make your sauce, gravy, whatever you want to call it.
I like mine with butter! You just made me hungry for them so tomorrow looks like a chicken and dumplin night!!!!!!!!!

Ok you get your meat. I like to combine beef and veal. Add some chopped up onions and peppers after you saute them, some egg, some bread crumbs, some red wine and worchestershire sauce. Mix it up with your hands.

Lay half of the mixture down on the pan Get some cheddar cheese and cover the meat with a layer of it. Then layer frozen tater tots over the cheese. Then another layer of cheese, then top off with the rest of the meat. Baby you got a meal goin!
