Super Chicken

Chicken contains vitamin B6, also called pyridoxine. Vitamin B6 is important for digesting proteins, plus it helps to keep hair and nerves healthy.

Health Twist

Substituting brown rice for white rice is an excellent way to boost whole grains. Brown rice supplies four times more magnesium than white rice. Magnesium plays an essential role in keeping hearts beating normally.

Mushroom Magic

Mushroom lovers can use reduced-fat cream of mushroom soup instead of the chicken soup, and add a can of sliced mushrooms with the broccoli.

Tasty and Quick

While it does take almost an hour in the oven, this recipe is easy and fast to throw together. Add a little jalapeno for some spice, or keep as is. Guaranteed to be a crowd pleaser.
