Hi All, I need some help with estimating this calories... I usually boil the chicken bone(pic below) with water + vege.

But I dont know how to estimate the chicken bone. It looks like below, and I trim off all the fat.

How many cal do you think there is ??

    sounds like chicken soup? chicken noodle soup is usually 150 cal per cup. so maybe 100cal a cup if theres no noodles.

    There is a lil meat left there after removing all the meat. And its very lil amount of meat attaching the bone. It is done by the vendor.

    And yes, its a chicken bone rack.

    If you aren't going to eat any meat or fat left on it or any veggies and just drink the clear liquid then look up homemade chicken stock in the data base.
