Manual recipe & database recipe calorie count discrepancy
I just found a recipe I want to try but, in the gist of trying to do it right, created a copy here to get the caloric content. When I went to put it in, I found the same-named recipe. It lists the same ingredients as what my created one is but has ~2.5x fewer calories per serving-and a slightly larger serving size-than…

Rice Cookers
Does anyone have recommendations on rice cookers? I am thinking a smaller one that would not take up a ton of room and make up to 4 servings at a time? Also, I prefer brown rice over white rice if that makes a difference in what you would buy. Thanks!

Anyone here using a Sousvide machine?
My hubby bought one recently and it is really helping me with my diet and is very convenient for my lifestyle.

The dried tomatoes add a…

Question about fat bomb sizes
Hello, I have come across a number of fat bomb recipes that will give me the number of calories, the fat grams etc. per bomb.
