Eating healthy doesn’t mean you need to give up all the foods you love. In reality, moderation is the key. Moderation when eating is one of the big secrets to successful dieting or maintaining a healthy weight.
We crave fats and sweets even though we know a diet rich in these isn’t good for us. So why not replace some of that sugary sweet craving with a naturally sweet fruit like blueberries?
Blueberries are a Super Food, high in antioxidants. In fact, these little blue drops are rated as the highest of any fruit in antioxidants. Blueberries are also high in fiber and vitamin C with a fair amount of Vitamin B-6, iron and Vitamin A.
It is a good idea to add a blueberry or two to your salads, cereal, yogurt or pancakes. Anytime you can improve on a Family Favorite recipe to make it healthier its a win for your whole family!

Blueberry glaze perks up everyday chicken breast. Perfect served over a whole grain rice like brown rice.

Blueberry Chicken and Rice

Prep time

Cook time

0 min

Total time

0 min

Ingredients

2 4-ounce chicken breasts, pounded to ½-inch thickness
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1 cup blueberries
½ cup sweet white wine (I used Moscato)
¼ teaspoon cinnamon
Salt and pepper to taste.
2 cups cooked rice

Instructions

Place blueberries, wine and cinnamon into a small saucepan. Bring to boil, whisking constantly. Reduce heat and cook uncovered to reduce sauce to one-third the volume. Whisk occasionally to distribute heat and keep berries from sticking.
While sauce cooks, prepare chicken.
Season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a medium skillet and brown chicken on both sides. Cook until internal temperature reaches 160 and juices run clear.
Serve chicken over rice and top with blueberry sauce.
