Points: 5 (listed on box)

Thoughts: Spicy! I love spicy foods, and this meal definitely has a kick that leaves your mouth pleasantly burning after only a few bites. Seemed like they were a bit stingy with the chicken on this meal, but I suppose the addition of the beans makes up for it. The sauce has a slight sweet flavor to it, but really, it's overwhelmed by the spicy. The pasta texture is surprisingly good - not too soft, not too chewy. I finished this meal very satisfied. Probably a meal I'll pick up again. A warning to those of you who don't like spicy foods - this meal definitely leaves your mouth tingling afterwards.

Rating: 3 stars
