Dinner - Chicken Soup w/ Jasmine Rice, Peas, and more Chicken

The Meal

Today I am making what may well be a classic here, chicken soup with rice and veggies.
This meal consists of:
  • 1 18.6 OZ. can of Campbell's Select Harvest - Chicken with Vegetables
    [550 mL of soup @ 80 calories per 240mL = 183 calories]
  • 1/2 cup Jasmine Rice
    [320 calories]
  • 1 Cup water
  • 1 Tablespoon Chopped Onions
    [10 calories]
  • Fresh ground black pepper
  • 50g of sweat peas
    [39 calories]
  • 100g baked chicken
    [138 calories]
The meal cooked in the rice cooker for about (started at 6:48) on cook, then I let it set for 10 minutes (it was still boiling) on keep warm. I had to manually change it from cook to warm to make sure there would still be water left.


Taste

Review: Very large output, wasn't expecting so much food. Lots of good veggies flavors however.

Portion Size: 5 medium portions, 3 large portions

Calories: ~690

Score: 5/10 (bland, needs more flavor)

Ideas for next time: Add more spices up front, 80 calorie soup has no flavor.
