Dairy & Gluten Free Chicken & Dumplings!
If you are in need of some warm comfort on these cold Winter days, look no further!! Seriously, I could have eaten this whole batch in one sitting!!
To make this a little more calorie and macro-friendly, I used light coconut milk, but for an even creamier version, you could use full fat!
Enjoy!
