weigh the pan before you cook it, cook it, weight then pan after cooked then subtract original pan weight and devide by 8. Go by weight and you will know for certain and won't have to take only 1 serving sizes if you don't want to!
I've yet to try this method but good to know for the future recipes!:drinker: :happy:
Be nice if they all did, but you've made a good point, if a person uses your method you really can control the portion size to whatever you want it to be, less or more and easily figure it out.
Glad you shared:flowerforyou:

Nope, not a post by me, but thanks, it really does work well. I am a person that wants every last crumb due to me, so I generally wiegh in grams, but just did this today with a meatloaf my hubby cooked and it was great knowing the exact amount instead of guestimating!
Takes a few seconds of "work it out" time, but saves in trying to figuring it out by looking at other people's numbers!0 -
Thanks for spelling out my Dinner tonight. I am going to make half your recipe and the other half I will add Broccoli for future use.
Cutting this amount in 8 pieces is a real generous serving, and we need comfort food today :-)0 -

This is how I make mac and cheese anyway. I use the milk we have on hand which is usually 1%. I use whole wheat pasta. I mix regular cheddar with WW cheddar. If you use only low fat cheese the consistency get a little yucky.
The only thing I don't do is bake it. We just eat it gooey.0 -
This sounds yum:laugh: I guess I'd forgotten all about posting because I was surprised to see I did:blushing:
I agree on the broccoli, it's a good add in, as well as chicken at times :drinker:0 -

You probably can find a low-fat recipe of Mac and Cheese on the internet. I'm always finding ways to make fattening meals low-fat myself. That wat you can eat it, not miss it.
