The joys of having a spouse that loves to cook as much as you do are many! We Big Daddy and I started dating there were family recipes that we liked but had never made. Together we would test them, merge what we liked about each family recipe, and find a happy medium we both liked. We did this with Chocolate Gravy and Chicken and Dumplings.
Chicken n Dumpling Casserole for Two
Fast forward a few years, we have food snob children that don’t like a huge pan of Chicken and Dumplings! What?! I broke down our favorite Chicken and Dumpling recipe to Chicken n Dumpling Casserole for Two to avoid leftovers we would never eat.
Now you may be thinking ‘that’s a Chicken Pot Pie’! But, alas, no. I didn’t put veggies in my Chicken n Dumpling Casserole for Two. Besides, it doesn’t taste like Chicken Pot Pie, it tastes just like Chicken n Dumplings!

Tips
- You can use leftover chicken or rotisserie chicken in this recipe.
- I used low-sodium and low-fat cream of chicken soup. You can use regular.
- You can substitute all-purpose flour for self-rising flour. Self-rising flour is all-purpose flour with baking powder and salt added. To make your own, combine 1 cup of all-purpose flour with 1 and 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
- I used two 5-inch ramekins. You can purchase them here.
