Let's Eat Healthy Series: Chicken Brought to you by Mason Recreation and Mason Dining.

Every two weeks we will choose a different ingredient to feature: from fruits to protein, grains to spices and more, we will give you a list of recipes, fun facts and an informational video about that ingredient. We'll give you a quick overview of this ingredient, and explain why it is a great choice to add to your cooking and snacking repertoire!

Visit our "Let's Eat Healthy" archive here and explore all of our previous featured ingredients.

Fun Facts:

  • Good source of vitamin B, vitamin D, calcium, iron, zinc, and trace amounts of vitamin A and vitamin C
  • Contains two to three times more polyunsaturated fat and monounsaturated fat—healthier fats than those in red meat
  • Great source of protein
  • Contains tryptophan, which is linked to higher levels of serotonin, the "feel good" hormone
