Quick and Easy Chicken Rice Dish – and It’s Perfect for Diabetics, Too!

We are all busy, especially at this time of the year.  However, we still need to feed our families nutrious meals, usually in a hurry.  If you follow my articles, you know I believe in family dinner times and cutting back on the trips through the fast food drive-thru lanes.  This Quick and Easy Chicken Rice Dish is the perfect recipe for busy family nights.  It is table ready in less than 30 minutes but the best part is that it is a light, healthy dish.  This one quick dish has meat, grains, vegetables, and fruit juice all in one dish.  Add a salad, a prepackaged one from the grocery store is fine, and you have a decent and tasty meal for your family.
