I'm making homemade machaca for dinner. I can't seem to figure out how many calories it is in it's final cooked state. The recipe is as follows:

3lbs bottom round roast
2 small cans salt-free tomato sauce
1 T garlic powder
1 T onion salt
1 t cumin
2 medium green peppers (anaheim)
1 medium yellow pepper (wax)

The amount makes about 20 burritos (using Guerrero raw flour tortillas) and I generally will eat 2 burritos.

If you can help figure this out, that would be so fantastic! Thanks!!!

    you can go to www.sparkpeople.com and there is a recipe calculator. You just type in the ingredients and the number of servings and it counts it out for you. Hope this helps. :smile:

    Machaca con huevos 'eh Dave198lbs? I don't prefer it as a breakfast, but rather as dinner. No eggs for me. I'll save that for chorizo. :)
