Smart Ones Chicken Mirabella


Calories: 200
WW Points: 4

Their description: A medley of pasta and white meat chicken in a marsala wine sauce with garden vegetables.

At first glance: Spaghetti pasta with julienned carrots and chopped broccoli (maybe 10-15 pieces of vegetable in all), next to chicken with a red sauce. Dish is meant to be mixed together halfway through cooking.

Upon closer inspection: Pasta looks dry. Mixed in with the chicken are
two small pieces of diced red pepper, two tiny pieces of mushroom, four pieces of zucchini, and some peas.

Taste: Pasta is very dry, vegetables aren't bad in terms of taste and texture. Chicken is rubbery. Red sauce is salty and pretty terrible-tasting. I'm glad I didn't mix it throughout or there wouldn't be much to eat.

Overall rating (up to 10): 3 (the chicken and sauce - the main parts of the meal - ruin it for me, big time
