You would think that penning over 3, 000 songs, earning eleven grammys, starring in a handful of movies, and creating your own literacy foundation would be enough talent for any one person, but no, dolly parton has done all of those things and somehow manages to be a great cook too. Chicken and dumplings is a favorite dish at 12 tomatoes, so when we saw that the queen of country had a version, we knew we had to give it a try. Her version is easy to follow and easy to enjoy, a comfort food classic done right hearty, heart-warming, simply made, and simply delicious.
