Easiest method for calculating calories in a full home cooked meal (and how much I should eat)?
Hiya!
I usually use MyFitnessPal. I want to be able to say I threw X amount of pasta, Y amount of sauce, Z amount of meat into a pot and know the deal. Now, the app can tell me the calories of the whole pot, but it wants ME to choose how many servings it is. I like to cook from the heart. I don’t want to know I’m making 4 servings or whatever. I want something that can say “ok you added all these ingredients, you should eat 1 cup of this dish to achieve your macros/calories.” Does anyone know of a feature or app that does that?
TIA
Editing for clarity: I’m not asking how to calculate the calories per serving. I was hoping for a way for an app to suggest, ok based on your daily goals of carbs/fats/calories etc, you should eat X amount of the dish you just cooked. But I have gotten some great suggestions to cheat the calculations so thanks for those ideas!
