Asian Chicken Packets w Veggies

I love, love, love the below recipe! Got it from South Beach Living, made it for my family & there was not a single bite left over it was soo good! Another great thing about this recipe is if you're having a date night, you can just cut everything in half and have a super impressive, colorful meal for 2 with very little effort- Super impressive :)

Health overview:

Red & Green Bell Peppers- 1 cup of Bell Peppers has over 100% of your Recommended Daily Intake for both Vitamins C & A! These vitamins contain powerful antioxidants (i.e.- beta-carotene) which effectively neutralize free-radicals that slowly breakdown cells in the body. Free radicals also contribute to the buildup of cholesterol in the arteries- Gross! The antioxidants found in Vit A & C also help reduce risk of heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, & even cataracts
For another Vit A rich recipe check out my Sweet Potato Fries Recipe :)

Garlic- No surprise here, garlic is a very impressive food.
Garlic, a member of the Allium family (think Onions), is sulfur rich. Why is consumption of sulfur rich food important? Because every cell in the body contains sulfur but the body does not produce it, therefore you gotta get it from foods like garlic! Sulfur is especially found in cartilage and the keratin of skin and hair. Want healthy skin, hair, & nails... eat foods from the Allium family. Sulfuric compounds also help maintain oxygen balance for proper brain function.
Sulfur rich foods also aid in liver detoxification. This food sounds magical I'm not going to lie- so cook the below recipe and do your body some good!!
