Tonight’s Factor - Smoky Gouda Macaroni & Shredded Beef with Toasted Garlic Green Beans:

This one has a higher carb count at 33 net carbs but I thought it would be a nice change. I was wrong.
The shredded beef was okay but a little bland. The Gouda macaroni was almost tasteless and the pasta undercooked. I added some Teriyaki sauce and Texas Pete. That helped but not much. Even with the additions it was still mostly bland and the pasta too chewy. The beans were also undercooked but reasonably tasty with added butter. I only ate about half of this meal. I marked this one a NO!
