Campfire Chicken and Dumplings

Chicken and dumplings is a family favorite, and this simplified version is our classic camping standby. It's a healthy, well-rounded meal and very filling. This soup is also warm, which is good since it tends to get cold in the evenings where we camp.

Ingredients:

• 2 (32 oz.) containers chicken broth
• 2 (12.5 oz.) cans chunk white chicken, undrained
• 1 (16 oz.) bag frozen mixed vegetables
• onion (leftover from hamburgers)
• celery salt to taste
• Italian seasoning to taste
• pepper to taste
• 2 cups Bisquick (I use low-fat)
• parsley to taste
• milk

Directions:

Combine chicken broth, canned chicken (with juice), frozen veggies, onion, celery salt, Italian seasoning, and pepper in a cast iron stock pot. Cook over fire until broth starts to boil.

Mix Bisquick with parsley flakes and add milk until a sticky dough forms. Drop blobs of dough (dumplings) into soup broth, and continue simmering until dumplings are cooked through. Serve and enjoy!
