Egg Free, Dairy Free Chicken and Dumplings

This is a great hearty meal that my girls couldn't get enough of. They especially loved the fluffy dumplings. Leftovers reheat perfectly.

Quick and Simple Chicken and Dumplings

6 tbsp dairy free margarine

½ cup flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
2 cups chicken broth
2 cups cooked diced or shredded chicken
2 cans mixed vegetables
2 cups Bisquick baking mix
1 cup soy milk

Melt the margarine in a large saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour, salt and pepper. Add the broth then whisk until thoroughly combined and thickened. Stir in the chicken and vegetables then bring to a boil over low heat. Meanwhile, combine the Bisquick and soy milk in a separate bowl until a soft dough is formed. Drop the dumpling mixture by spoonfuls on top of the boiling chicken mixture. Cook, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Cover and cook an additional 20 minutes or until the dumplings are cooked through.
