1 small chicken (1-1/2 lbs)
1 1/2 cup water
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 stalk celery
1/4 cup onion
1 dumplings, recipe follows
1 cup all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 tbsp shortening
1/2 cup skim milk
Instructions:
Directions for Chicken and Dumplings: Disjoint chicken and remove
skin; place in large pan. Add water, salt, celery, and onion; simmer
1 to 2 hours or until meat is tender. Remove chicken from bone;
return chicken to chicken stock. Bring chicken and stock to a boil;
add rolled dumplings. Cover and boil gently 8 to 10 minutes.
Directions for making rolled dumplings: Combine flour, baking powder,
and salt. Cut in shortening. Add milk to make a stiff dough. Roll
dough out to about 1/8 inch thickness and cut into 1 inch strips,
squares or diamonds.
Each serving 3/4 Cup, may be exchanged for 2 Medium Fat Meat, 1
Starch.
To make a chicken pot pie, put mixture in a deep dish, cover with a
rolled pastry dough to fit, making several slashes in the top. The
top crust would add calories to the total. You may add peas, carrots,
mushrooms if you like. Those ingredients are not in the original
recipe. From files of Alice Broaddus 2/02/93

Chicken is ideal
for weight loss
and dieting
Healthy eating is far better than strict dieting, and weight loss achieved by a change of lifestyle lasts far longer than 'faddy' diets that are difficult to adopt for long periods.
Cooking more low fat chicken can enable you to lose weight gradually as part of a a controlled and healthy diet.
