Easy Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings

The slow cooker does all the work in this delicious dinner. Chicken, carrots, celery, onions and seasonings are added to a slow cooker. Then cream of chicken soup, cream of celery soup, chicken broth and water are stirred into the chicken and vegetables. Everything cooks for several hours in the slow cooker before peas are added with cut up canned biscuits. The biscuit pieces cook in the slow cooker for an additional 45 minutes before serving.
