    I had the Chicken Teriyaki one. The veggies were fresher than you normally find in a frozen dinner and it was surprisingly filling. It was a bit spicier than I thought it would be though. It also takes a longer time to cook than most, but that's a sacrifice I'll take for flavour.

    I received a free coupon for this as part of the Product Review club.

    I received a full value coupon from ChickAdvisor - thank you! I chose the Roast Garlic Chicken. It was really good! Other people in the office were commenting on how good it smelled! The chicken was tender, the sauce was thick and creamy and the vegetables were perfectly cooked. I don't usually like a lot of sauce and only used a little of it until I tasted it - then I added all of the sauce! I found for lunch, it was a perfect amount. The price was $4.99 - a little pricey. I would like to try the Teriyaki Chicken next.

    Also, I wanted to mention that the nutritional facts were impressive! Only 190 calories! Yum!

    I received this product free to test and chose the Mediterranean Chicken. I enjoyed the taste/flavor, veggies were crisp and had real chicken. I do like that you can control how much sauce you add in. I don't like a lot of sauce on my food most times, so this was a bonus. I would say that these are pretty much the same as similar frozen meals out there, besides the sauce control. I also felt there wasn't much food, not good for someone taking for lunch and not bringing along other snacks, they would be hungry very soon! They are also pricey for the amount of food you get - then again all the similar frozen meals are. I would buy again, but only if I could get it on sale, have a coupon or in a pinch.

    Recived a coupon for free lean cusine inspirations from Chick advisor to try one if the varaety they have.
    I tried Lean Cusine shrimp and alfredo sause and it tasted good.
    When i opened my microwave the film at the top was removed and half of it at the sause. Shrimp was cooced good. And extra veggies in stayed chrispy. However if u need to eat it at wirk i dont think you will get full u will need more. But for a light diner or even a snack i say go for it. I will be trying all flavours for sure.

    I received a full value coupon to purchase this meal. I tried the Thai Chicken was very pleasantly surprised. The sauce was very tasty and the veggies were crisp and fresh tasting. It has to be one of the better frozen meals I have had and a nice alternative for the taste. I would definitely have again and try some of the other flavours and would recommend it to friends and family.

    I received a full-value coupon for Lean Cuisine Fresh Inspirations to do this review.

    I choose the Thai Chicken and have no regrets.
    Following the instructions, which I think are a little much, I experienced that the film on the food container popped off on it's own after 1 1/2 mins. I opened the microwave to see what was wrong, tried to reseal the film and followed the rest of the instructions.
    Compared to other frozen meals, I really did enjoy this one. I loved all the vegetables, and the sauce was a true Thai taste. One improvement would have been to use bamboo shoots instead of the baby corn. I found the baby corn did not fit with this meal. The chicken was real chicken and not the processed kind which is an added bonus.
    I was also skeptical about the size of the portion, looked small, but was very filling!
    I would recommend this item to my co-workers and friends. They were asking what that wonderful smell was.
    As for the full value price of 3.99 at the store I bought it at, that is a little high for a regular lunch item for me, but I would definitely consider buying it, if it was on sale or I had some coupons to off set the price.

    Not bad! I was a bit skeptical at first because many similar products I've tried in the past never met my expectations, but this one did! It's convenient and tasty. It's also got a variety of flavours to suit all types of food-lovers!

    I received this product coupn in the mail to test it out. I was a bit skeptical at first because many similar products I've tried in the past never met my expectations, but this one did! It's convenient and tasty. It's also got a variety of flavours to suit all types of food-lovers! It lacked freshness, but I enjoyed the taste very much. It is better than other entrees I've tried because it has healthier options. I tried the chicken teriyaki one and it's not bad! I would definitely recommend it to anyone!

    I received a full-value coupon for Lean Cuisine Fresh Inspirations to do this review.

    I selected Shrimp Alfredo as I love shrimp and alfredo sauce. The meal was easy to warm and serve. I didn't think the meal tasted any fresher than other frozen entrees. In fact, I would have preferred my broccoli to be more al dente (it was rather shrivelled after warming). The taste was good, enough salt and pepper, and the shrimp was decent. I just wish there was more sauce and it wasn't so watery.

    Would I recommend this? Yes.
    It would be great in a pinch, especially if you need a quick meal. But it doesn't quite live up to its inspirational name.
