Gosh you guys are ready for your own "cooking with pegi and don" show

[@kahea85]

Agree

[@lynn_thinks]

🤣 more like cooking with Peggy & eating with Don - 😂🤣

[@gaila.8830]

If you get yourself an apron, make sure to pass by, or online, at t-shirt printing shop to personalize it with your names 😄 Or like Judy said, "Pegi and Don cooking show" name 👍 Or the one Lynn said "cooking with Pegi and eating with Don" 😜

You dont put celery in your dpling it gives a richer body

Thank you for this video. I haven't had chicken and dumplins since I was a little girl living down south. I live in the Midwest now and my mother has since passed away. I currently have my chicken and dumplins bubbling away on the stove. Blessings to you and your family 💜

[@mshenry9103]

I made these chicken and dumplings yesterday and my kids loved them. They were so good

[@melindachristisourhope6255]

Looks delicious. My favorite You tube couple.

[@pegianddon]

Thank you, Melinda!

[@saltandvinegar4145]

I make chicken and noodles from scratch and after all this time my family still doesn't seem to realize that between mixing, rolling, drying, and cutting time it takes like 5 hours. It's a labor of love. My husband got me the Kitchenaid noodle roller attachment for Christmas last year, even though he openly admitted it was so they would get more noodles LOL.

[@pamularcarter418]

You made the real chicken and dumplings. You really are my soul sister. Blessings fam.

[@pegianddon]

Yes we are!!!

[@geno5360]

When you said simple seasoning I thought it was gonna be a little on the bland side but not at all! That looks like some phenomenal chicken & dumplings! I loved this cooking segment and I'd love to watch you do more of these for sure!

[@pegianddon]

We will definitely do more cooking videos

[@corrineperry5523]

I would substitute Celery for onion

[@tractorman1946]

In our area, we call those sinkers. Our dumplings are fluffy and made with Bisquick. Yours looks delicious, Pegi.

[@danam.8709]

Oh Girl !! Looks Yummy. I Never threaten another Prepper with "coming to your house" but if I smell that chicken and dumplings cooking I may just have to break my rule . 😄😄💙💖💜👍. We're having unseasonal snow, 5+inches, here need some comfort food 😉

[@ChrisCalmtheCrazy]

HONEY BUNNY! I love it! Gotta love Don for recognizing how much we put into feeding our families, the old fashion way. I am allergic to many preservatives so I cook the old fashion ways out of necessity. But there is no food like good ol' fashion home cookin'!

[@kayp.3832]

As usual, Don has the hardest job in the video. lol

Somebody's gotta do it.

Exactly!!!

[@lisajo7140]

Thank you ♡ I love the tip about using the broth in the dumplings mix!

I should've highlighted it because that's the secret of the whole recipe!

Enjoyed watching you cook for Don. Chicken and Dumpling is one of my favorite meals also. Mom and Grandmom use to make drop dumplings. Guess I will have to try my hands at it one of these cold winter days.

Have you tried Better than Bullion? I bought several jars but haven't tried it yet. Maybe tomorrow because now I'm in the mood for dumplings!

I agree with Don, Chicken & Dumplings is my favorite meal as well. I've been making my Grandmothers recipe my whole adult life and it's the most requested dinner from my friends & family. They all know how much love goes into making them and I believe that's the special ingredient to this meal.......LOVE. Thanks for sharing. TTYL, my friend. ~~~~Tina

[@sueh.5101]

I found your recipe for chicken and dumplings just in time to make for our 37th wedding anniversary tomorrow! I have always been afraid to make dumplings and you convinced me that I can do this! The only dumplings he has had are from Cracker Barrel and that is the only meal he orders when we go there - for 38 years! You and Don make me smile and I just subscribed! Hugs from Florida!

Peggie when you learn to make your own bone broth you are going to be so excited. I use my large electric roaster and let it simmer for several days.

Do you have a good recipe for bone broth?

My Donald loves leftovers too!

[@cathyeller5722]

Thanks for the recipe, I've been looking for more chicken recipes. I cook a whole chicken every third weekend, I try to stretch that chicken into as many meals as I can for the week. I keep broth in the freezer and can pull it out later in the week. The first time I made these they were to thick and came out tough. I had to use a peanut butter jar for a rolling pin, they were eatable but, it's going to take me some more practice. So, far I can get 11 meals out of one whole chicken, there is only two of us. Again, thanks for the video

[@pegianddon]

Wow that is very impressive. There are so many meals you can do make chicken. It my favorite meat to cook with.

[@sylviajackson7596]

My niece and I were just talking about chicken and dumplings yesterday, it was my favorite meal my mom made growing up, now I definitely have to make some this week. Tfs

[@lawandawilliams2797]

I love watching you guys. Just started watching about a month now. My mother taught me how to make chicken and dumplings when I was in my early teens. Same way. She always said to place the dumplings where the broth is bubbling up, it sucks the dumplings to the bottom of the pot so they don't stick and it helps them to start to cook. Good job.

[@AnitaC1958]

This is one of my favorite dishes. I will try adding butter to the dumplings next time. ❤️ from NC

[@bobbiegambarini4752]

The ones I learned to make were called slickers. They're good too. Slightly different recipe but good as well. You add milk to the liquid in the pot, along side the chicken. Think the recipe might be from Arkansas or Oklahoma. Also add chopped onion and celery to the chicken and water when boiling. Simple, old fashioned food.

This looks fabulous makes me want to cook some for dinner tomorrow we're having colder temperatures here... high of 54 tomorrow... This would be the perfect dish to cook... I do mine the same way you do yours minus the onions and generally I add heavy whipping cream to thicken up my broth with the cream of chicken soup and it gives it just a little bit more richness Love it love it love it. I love all the great advice you guys give on your channel keep up the good work.
