Chicken and Dumplings

I was craving a feel good, comfort food kind of dinner last week and this hit the spot. The kids thought the dumplings were a little questionable because of their texture so didn't eat them, but them seemed to enjoy the rest. Weirdos!! I thought the best part was the dumplings! I got this recipe from Our Best Bites.

Ingredients:
6 cups chicken broth
1 lb. cooked chicken, cut into bite-sized pieces (i used rotisserie chicken)
1 c. carrots (chopped)
2 ribs celery (chopped)
1 onion (chopped)
2-3 cloves garlic (minced)
1 bay leaf
1 handful of chopped fresh parsley (or 1 Tbsp. dried parsley)
1/2 tsp. basil
1 14-oz. can evaporated milk (fat free is fine)
1 recipe of Bisquik dumplings (recipe is on the box) or 1 small package of Kluski noodles

Directions:
In some olive oil in large pot. Saute onions and garlic for a few minutes. Then add chicken broth, chicken, bay leaf, and basil bring to a boil. Once boiling add carrots and celery and reduce heat to simmer. Cover and cook until carrots and celery are tender. Then add the parsley and evaporated milk. Bring to boil again before adding dumplings or noodles. Cook for about 4-5 minutes until dumplings are cooked through.
