Helpful hints

• For convenience, you can use a package of prepared dumpling noodles like Mary B’s^® brand, which can be found in the frozen food section of your grocery store.
• If you are on a protein-modified diet, select a smaller 2.5-pound chicken to reduce protein to 21 grams per serving. 
• Substitute 3 turkey legs, skinned, boned and chopped for chicken.
