Kung Pao chicken from an Amazon Fresh meal kit. Yes, I was lazy, but also curious about what $14.99 would get me. The verdict:

- must have been a pretty skinny chicken, about a cup of breast meat shards

- a few bits of veg, some white rice, a tepid sauce and about ten peanuts for topping

So, a flop. The ingredients - for what they were - were adequate, but for less I could get more and better ingredients and easily make my own...

OH, and this is advertised for feeding TWO, so even more lame:
