I'm not sure where to post this so i'll post here.

What do you do if you "home make" a meal and you cant find the item in the food calorie thing?

I made home made chicken and rice soup.

2 leg quarters (skinless and i took most of the fat off and once it was boiled I took the meat off the bone)
Brown rice
2 cans of mix veggies
4 boion cubes.

and probably close to a gallon of water....

How do you "estimate" calorie intake in situations like that?
