Beef & Black Bean Chili
A good combo, nice portion for lunch.

Dijon Mustard Chicken Thighs
I thought the mustard would be more powerful as a dijon but it kinda got lost for me, not a huge fan of the mash flavor but it didn't taste bad

Too much dill in the cornbread

Beef & Black Bean Chili
The chili flavor, ingredients and texture were excellent but there was too much cheese and grease. The beef and cheese oil saturated the chili and pooled on the bottom and sides more than reasonable. Sadly inedible. Also did not enjoy the corn muffin - it had tough unmelted grated cheese throughout. The muffin's flavor and texture were unpleasant because of the hard cheese flakes. Disappointed, but could see this dish as great with changes.

Beef & Black Bean Chili
i would prefer a sweet cornbread, the herbed cornbread is a little off and doesn't complement the chili as well

Broccoli-Cheddar Breakfast Frittata
The fritata did not taste much of the eggs.
