Crock Pot Chicken and Dumplings Recipe

Looking for a super easy dinner idea? Look no further - this is Liz's own super easy, super lazy 3 ingredient dinner. No joke. That's counting the rice to serve with it!
What you need:
Crock pot
Chicken (approximately 2 lbs depending on who you're feeding) - frozen or fresh
2 cans of chicken and dumplings soup (I like Campbell's Home Style Creamy Chicken and Herb Dumplings)
Rice for serving over
Directions:
Spray bottom of crock pot with cooking spray so it doesn't stick. Place chicken breasts (or thighs!) on the bottom of the crock pot. Cover with two cans of soup. Set crock pot to 8 hours (or 10, mine does either) on slow. Stir as you are able to throughout the day. Make rice as directed. Shred chicken in crock pot and serve over rice.
Filling? Yes. Tasty? OMG. It's my favorite dinner. I'm not going to talk about its calories or anything like that because I fear I'd never eat it again. Enjoy!
