Ok, not really sure where this post should go, but here goes. I found a recipe I want to try. It's Easy Low-Fat Southern Banana Pudding. I am unsure of what the serving size is. It says it makes 8 servings but are they 1 cup or 1/2 cup? I'm sure this sounds really dumb to some but I am still kinda new to this whole thing. Here is the recipe if that helps.

3-3/4 cups cold fat-free milk, divided
2 pkg. (4-serving size each) JELL-O Vanilla Flavor Fat Free Sugar Free Instant Pudding
32 Reduced Fat vanilla wafers
2 bananas, sliced
2 cups thawed COOL WHIP FREE Whipped Topping
make it

POUR 3-1/2 cups of the milk into large bowl. Add pudding mixes. Beat with wire whisk 2 minutes or until well blended. Let stand 5 minutes.

ARRANGE layer of wafers on bottom and up side of 2-quart serving bowl; drizzle with 2 Tbsp. of the remaining milk. Add layer of banana slices; top with 1/3 of the pudding. Repeat layers, drizzling wafer layer with remaining milk and ending with pudding. Spread whipped topping over pudding.

REFRIGERATE 3 hours or until ready to serve.

    I would weigh the bowl before assembling the pudding and then weigh the final assembled banana pudding. Subtract the empty bowl's weight and either log the recipe by 100g servings or divide the weight by 8 and log as Banana Pudding (126g servings) or something similar.

    If you don't have a food scale, you can assemble the banana pudding in a square baking dish that is easy to divide into 8 roughly equal servings.
