Okay. What is your secret for working out calories on something like homemade chili?

    I use the recipe builder. I add the ingredients in and then way the final product to determine serving size, I usually set it as 1 serving is 1 gram.

    I will often pre-portion my servings and freeze the portion individually. So to determine the calories I use the recipe builder and set how many portions my recipe made. The last batch of chili I made was 8 servings that I froze in ziploc baggies.
