I made this tonight for supper but made a half recipe because it's only me eating it. Then only ate about a 1/2 cup so I have left overs.  It was really tastey!  I have never had curry anything so I went light on the curry powder but I will put more in it next time I make it.

Ingredients

4 Skinless, boneless chicken breasts; frozen or fresh (cubed)

1 cup Uncooked rice (used Uncle Ben's brown rice)

2 cups Water (used low sodium chicken broth instead of water & boullion)

2 tbsp. Olive oil

2 Chicken flavored bullion cubes

3 Or 4 carrots, peeled and quartered (diced everything in smaller bites)

1 Red bell pepper, seeded and sliced

1/4 tsp. Black pepper

2 tsp. Onion powder

3 tsp. Curry powder

Several pinches parsley for added color

Preparation

Dissolve bullion in 1/2 of the water and place in a 13x9 casserole dish with oil, remainder of water, and rice. Stir in pepper, curry powder, and onion powder. Place chicken breasts on top of rice and arrange carrots and peppers around the chicken then sprinkle with parsley. Cover with foil and place in pre-heated 375-degree oven. Bake for apx. 45 min. Until chicken is done and the moisture has cooked out of the rice.

I thought of that....you could use cream of chicken soup or something like that and mix it altogether or add flour/corn starch to thicken it  up like a gravy.  I want to add broccoli next time I make it.  I didn't eat much of the rice because it fills me up but I like to eat it occasionally.

If you just take out a cup and a half of  the water and rice that would work. too.  It is 1 cup of rice for every 2 cups of water.  but you need some water for the bullion.   I love curry and will try this out!

I feel great.  I cant get over how much energy I have already.  I had to set a scheduel for eating because I forget to eat.  I sip all day long no problem.  I went out and weeded and added plants to my 3 big flower beds this weekend.  Helped plant 9 big trees...My husband and I are trying to walk everyday together.  My striips came off my belly and are almost healed.  I am very lucky so far to only have had that one bad day and I threw up 2 more times when I had mild so I don;t drink it anymore.
