Conagra Brands has issued a class I high health risk recall of more than 131,000 pounds of frozen chicken bowl products.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service announced Friday the recall is due to the possible containment of extraneous material, specifically small rocks.
