Lean Cuisine Chicken Parmesan

Today's lunch was Lean Cuisine Chicken Parmesan.
At 310 calories and 8g of fat, it was not terrible.
The chicken tasted ok, nothing to write home about, but not inedible.  The spaghetti was actually cooked exactly how I like it - nuking it didn't dry it out or make it gross.  The tomato sauce, while plentiful, was not good - way too tangy.  And not the good kind of tangy; more like the "I just ate a lemon and it's making the back of my jaw  ache" kind of tang.
Once again, there is a big difference between the advertised awesome-looking dish on the box, and the reality of the little black tray inside.  Where is the cheese?!
While it is probably better for me than the PB&J I had originally planned on packing in my lunch today, I think my palette would have been happier with the sandwich.
I do not anticipate buying this variety again.



Taste: 2.0

Be sure to check back tonight, when I post how my first attempt at grilled lamb chops turned out!
