This dish was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it didn't wow me either.

The beans were a bit overcooked for my liking. I'll cook them for less time next time.

This dish was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

I'm not usually a fan of blue cheese, but it worked really well in this dish. The tanginess of the cheese complemented the sweetness of the beans perfectly.
