Hi aunty this is a regular in our house too. I use the create recipe on MFP ...hav u tried that? I found stew low in cal as long as u use lean meat but watch potatoes they r high in cal. Sometimes I bulk it up with tin lentils. Hubby almost screeched first time he saw me do that but he ok now cos you can't really taste them but they thicken stew. They do attract high cal too cos high carb but I weigh that against being low gi but it's not too bad every now n then. I hate winter. Always struggle with food then. My trainer told me to at least maintain til summer n then smash it again. But I'm getting impatient!
