Lean Cuisine Sesame Stir Fry with Chicken

Today's lunch was pretty good.
It not only has sesame-flavored chicken, but broccoli, peppers, edamame, and delicious whole wheat vermicelli!
The chicken was cook perfectly, though there could have been a little more.  The pasta was also well done.  The veggies didn't come out quite as fresh as the last few days but they weren't bad.  The broccoli was a little overpowering, and I've never understood why, even at Chinese restaurants, broccoli always gets paired with sesame chicken.  I don't think it compliments the flavor very well.  Maybe it's just a cheap veggie. The sauce was sweet and enjoyable, though I would have liked a little more of it to go with all the chicken and veggies.  They weren't as liberal with the pasta in this dish as they were with the Roasted Honey Chicken of yesterday. 
This dish has 6g of fat, a little more than the last several I've done, but only 300 calories.  All around, I'd say it's pretty good for you.  I find myself feeling pretty hungry still, however, about an hour after I ate.  At 300 calories, I should feel full considerably longer, methinks.
I can't really see myself purchasing it again, though, to be honest.  I've already come across enough winners.  :)
