It's a Two fer Part Deux . . .

This posting now is my actual lunch from today.  Lean Cuisine Chicken with Almonds

 really? do you have to make it so difficult to orient pictures?  this is starting to piss me off big time.

This meal is another one of my go tos.  It's in the rotation quite a bit.  I like the green beans (I guess it has broccoli too) and the rice, and overall flavor is good.
 yes, that is upside down.  I can't win today.

OMG you guys, this dinner has exactly 5 pieces of chicken in it, say wha?!?!?!?  To mix it up I cut them in half so I had 10 Ha!  Something you might consider yourselves good people at LC.  Throw me a bone, make me feel like you gave me something extra now and then, ok?  There are also actual almonds.  I think you can see about 4 in the photo above if you look really hard.  More would be nice but not critical.

Usually I have to eat this on a day when I have a big breakfast or eat breakfast late or something.  This one weighs in at 250 calories which is cool, but I always end up kind of hungry again after I eat it.   It can feel kind of skimpy some days.  Not really sure why.  My team of research assistants is working on that now to try to find an answer.  When they have one, I will let you know.  [yeah, i don't really have any research assistants.  just an intern but somehow i think he would be confused if i gave him work related to my blog.  or not.  he also might be so scared of me he would do it anyway]

So, while I do like this one a lot--oh by the way, chicken has a brown sauce, slightly sweet but not as sweet as the Roasted Honey Chicken-- I don't think I can honestly give it more than a 4 out of 5 because its not very filling and I wind up having to have a snack or eat super late so then I am on to dinner before I get hungry again (like at 3.  I ate about 2 today and I'm already trying to talk myself out of going down to get a candy bar and wondering if the gal down the hall has any more pretzel M&Ms).  But I will give it a RECOMMENDED.  It has good flavor and I eat it pretty often. 


Writing two of these back to back has really taxed me so I have to go get a coke now.


Tomorrow working from home and may not get anything posted.  Have a great weekend!
