White Cheese Chicken Lasagna
I think this would be much better if the recipe called for browned and drained Italian sausage rather than chicken, broccoli (in addition to the spinach), and if the white sauce had several cloves of roasted garlic blended into it. The recipe as it stands was a bit bland, and the chicken was just kind of 'there'. I used 2% milk and the sauce was super thick- I cannot imagine using whole milk. That said, I think the flour and butter could both be halved- saving a ton of carbs, calories, and fat. I also ended up using only 2.5 cups of mozzarella altogether- using anymore would have just been gluttonous.

Basic Ham and Bean Soup
Good, but even with adjustments (substituted in chicken broth and used a ham bone plus ham) it lacked in flavor. While I thought this was mediocre, my fiance scarfed down 2 bowls so I averaged my score out to 4 stars. I think this could have been much better with a bit of tomato paste and spice.

Chicken Breasts with Balsamic Vinegar and Garlic
I was really expecting something spectacular after reading several of the reviews, but this dish was just a standard week day meal, nothing to really set it a part from all the other reduction type pasta dishes. Like many others, I added 1 tbspn of cream at the end (the sauce was just not thickening properly). It was good and I may make it again, but certainly not in an attempt to impress anyone with the taste or presentation. While chibi chef's photo is beautiful, and I really tried to make mine look like that, it's just not a 'pretty' dish (look at the other photos).
