how do I figure out micros and macros?
You can use MFP's recipe calculator (under the Food tab in the bar at the top of the website) and save any favourites to your recipe box. Just measure and weigh out each ingredient when you're cooking, enter each one into the calculator, enter how many servings the entire recipe makes, and MFP will figure out the calories and macros per serving
What I used to do to be a bit more accurate with serving sizes of my own recipes was to weigh the entire batch of what I'd just cooked in grams, then divide by 100 and enter that number as the amount of servings to get the nutrition stats per 100g. That way, I didn't have to eyeball my servings, and if I was having some as leftovers the next day and served myself a different amount, I could just weigh it instead of trying to figure out if I was having 1/6 or 1/5 or whatever of the original batch.0 -

Pizza was at a chocolate restaurant. Sorry?
Second one is not even worthy of a recipe. Cook sticky rice as normal but with cinnamon in it. Top with mango and more cinnamon and drench in condensed milk IIFYM This is my go to refeed food from now on! 0 -
Vegetable sausages with mashed potato and gravy (395 calories)
Meatballs with salsa and rice (423 calories)
Lemon and pepper tuna and sweet potato fried rice (592 calories, but I used 2 cans of tuna haha)
Chocolate porridge topped with delta creams (491 calories, but would be around 400 with 2 delta creams, which is enough)

Never participated in one of these posts, but here I go...
My typical salad. 3-4 cups of romaine, grilled chicken, chopped apples, some dried fruit and pecans.
White rice, peas, diced ham, parmesan, and sriracha sauce.
I usually don't do the white rice thing, but a friend gave me like 4 bags so we're going to use it 0 -

Honestly? I marinaded my chicken while I whipped up lunch and then I threw it in the oven while I was in the shower.I totally agree! I am so busy with work and kids and housework that I usually end up cooking "their" dinner and making an Omlet with spinach and salsa! I am talking nearly every dinner!!!!
You just find ways to multi-task and MAKE time. None of my meals take more than 45 minutes to make and eat, really... And I do the dishes as I'm cooking to avoid a huge clean-up. Some of my dinners are less than 20 minutes to prepare, so surely if you have time to make an omelet you have time to whip up something easy, healthy, and different.
The key is planning ahead and knowing what you're going to make. Having everything on hand and just getting stuff done whenever you have time. If you're able to do stuff in advance, even better. I've been known to throw together dinner marinades in the morning while I'm prepping breakfast or even the night before. Saves time and makes you feel good knowing you're eating healthy, fresh food that you've prepared yourself.
Maybe you're just in an omelet rut?
I agree w you. When I am on point, eating healthy, I am prepping & cooking in advance...I eat healthier and SAVE MONEY! I cooked today's dinner this morning...and cooked tomorrow's dinner while cleaning up from today's dinner. I LOVE coming home & not having to think about while I'll eat....if dinner isn't planned in advance I find myself ordering pizza w my teen son...hence my significant weight gain!0
