Left over excitement

  The other day I made two stuffed chickens for dinner. Mmm...
To my surprise only one fed my family of six that night. So tonight I am using the meat from my leftover chicken to make a new recipe I found on Pinterest tonight. Chicken and Dumpling casserole. I shredded my chicken up and began this recipe. Melted 1/4 cup of unsalted butter and poured it into a 9x13 baking dish. Covered that with my chicken.
 Next I mixed in a bowl 1 cup flour,1 cup milk,1 & 1/4 tsp baking powder and 1/4 tsp.salt. Poured that over the chicken.( don't mix). 

 Next I mixed together can of chicken broth with a can of cream of chicken. Poured that on top of the floured mixture. (Don't mix).



 I than put it into a preheated oven of 400 degrees and it said to bake 35 to 45 minutes. 
In my oven it took 50 minutes. I almost was getting worried.
 I was able to get two casseroles out of my one chicken. That's what I call getting the most out of your food without waste! Lol.


 I got thinking and remembered I had some gravy leftover as well. 
I heated it up and added it to my dish. Wow! I am in love with this recipe.😋
