I am in need of a recipe...

So yesterday was one of those cool, fall days and Chicken and Dumplings sounded really good. The problem? I have never made Chicken and Dumplings. So I found a Paula Dean recipe online and thought that it would be a good one. The only changes that I made was I added peas and carrots and did not put celery in. I made the dumplings just like the recipe said and the only difference there was that I used wheat flour instead of white flour. Ok now the soup turned out great! It had really good flavor and was hearty. The dumplings however did not turn out. They ended up being little wheat disks that were not good at all. Could using wheat flour make it turn out bad? So now I am looking for a good chicken and dumplings recipe! Do you have one you can recommend? I would love to try it!

I don't have any great chicken and dumpling recipes, but allrecipes.com has a ton and you can sort them by reviews. It's always helpful to read a few reviews before deciding on a recipe because you can find a recurring adjustment to the recipe that some users suggest (i.e. wheat instead of white flour). Good luck!
