    use low sodium tomato puree/sauce and it will be even healthier.

    Well, I ended up getting store brand tomato sauce and they didn't have the low sodium version for the same price. And neither did the name brand the store sold. The store brand actually had less sodium than "Hunt's". Go figure. LOL. Thanks for the tip though.... I also think that you have to watch your sodium the rest of the day.

    Also, the calories and other nutritional information doesn't account for the rice... because it is dependant on what you are in the mood for. So the nutritional value is for the chicken, veggies and sauce only.
