Chinese Chicken

This goes back to my beginning microwave teaching days. Any cooked meat can be used in this recipe and it always comes out great. If you are using leftover ham, add some drained pineapple chunks. Kids usually like this. It’s crunchy!!

Mushroom soup
1 green pepper, cut in strips
1/2 cup chicken broth 1 - 4 oz. can sliced mushrooms,drained
