    Frozen veggies contain a lot of water. Unless you plan to eat it frozen, I would tracked the cooked amount.

    BTW: Your question isn't stupid.

    It's definitely not stupid because frankly I have no idea.

    I mean, some you have to steam in the bag, so obviously it's cooked. But otherwise, I'm still not sure, as it doesn't say anything on the package. Usually I weigh it cooked anyway, as I make more than one serving, but when I only make one, I just weigh it frozen.

    I just measure it in a 1/3 cup before cooking because I usually only make one serving at a time.
