Hey guys,

My spouse is making fettucine from scratch (well he already made it, he's cooking it tonight). I can not seem to figure out how many calories would be in this. He literally starts with flour etc. and makes the pasta and then cooks it. I don't plan on eating any more of it than I would a non homemade pasta. Maybe less than one cup.

Any ideas how many calories to count it as?

    Enter the recipe and then enter the number of portions you divide it into.

    normally flour, egg and water for pasta.

    you can get the recipe and figure out the calories or just estimate the calories based on other products. If you will be eating this alot I'd figure out the calories from the recipe but if you only eat it once a month or less I'd guess, based on other products.

    Enter the recipe and then enter the number of portions you divide it into.

    Go to your FOOD tab.

    Then click Recipes.

    Then click the green button on the right that says Enter New Recipe.

    Save the recipe.
