Ok, so I collect a LOT of recipes. Really, it seems like abnormal amounts. I think it's because I like to have a large rotation of safe recipes I can go to when I'm craving something. The point being, I want to share them with you.
What you will find, however, is that I USUALLY don't calculate my recipes by serving, but by the whole recipe. This allows me to break the recipe into whatever portion size my fat little heart desires. This also allows me to weigh the full recipe (say a soup, which will vary in volume depending on how much you boil it) in grams (which are smaller and make me feel like my calorie counts are more accurate) and then divide the total calories and weight by, say, 4 and portion out that exact amount. It makes me feel less anxious.
Of course, do what you want. You don't have to do this. You're still gonna lose weight if you're hitting your calorie goals.
Also, I haven't tried all of my recipes yet. That would take me either binging myself into a coma or years. So the ones that I have tried will have a rating and what I would do differently if I made it again.
If one of these recipes is something that you posted somewhere on the internet and you can't live without the world knowing you created it, TELL ME. I will happily give you credit. I created basically NONE of these recipes myself. I have modified a few.
So without further ado, here's the first recipe:
Recipe:
Boil some water and blanch the noodles for 2 min, drain, and let sizzle a little longer in the pan to remove excess water.
Toss spinach, mushrooms, and sauce in a pan on medium-high heat. The sauce will go a long way, which I learned the hard way after putting in about a quarter cup. It still came out great! Once things are softening and wilting, grate in some ginger. Put the mixture over the noodles and you’re basically done.
Whole recipe: 144 calories, 2 g fat, 24 g carb, 12 g protein
