Logging recipe tips

My top tip is to weigh ALL of you pots and pans and casserole dishes and store the weights. Then after you have cooked a dish then you can quickly calculated the net weight by weighing the whole lot and subtracting the pan weight. I found this makes it more accurate than just guessing a potion size from the cooked meal

+1! I took the time to do this and wrote it down on a chart that I keep handy. I also weighed the insert to my instant pot, the bowl to my Kitchenaid, and all of my prep/storage containers.0
