Recipe websites with calorie information

I stumbled across a website that posts for the recipes the calories per serving. This is sooo convenient. Does any one know of any other websites like this with good simple/quick recipes (nothing too complicated-I am not a great cook) ?

The website I found is http://skinnyfitalicious.com

    Skinnytaste.com has a lot of good recipes and includes nutritional info

    Also you should be using the recipe builder on here if you're making any recipes to get an accurate calorie count.

    Thanks, I do that for my own recipes but when I am looking for recipes and ideas online so much easier when the nutritional info is already there.

    Even more convenient is when there is a Log It button to add the meal to your MFP food diary: https://blog.myfitnesspal.com/category/eat/

    This last link is really good. Wish that log it buttons was possible with more websites.

    On a side not who would mark this as spam? I was looking for website suggestions.

    The Minimalist Baker is one of my favourite sites - although none of their food is specifically low cal or anything like that, they do post nutrition information. All of the recipes are supposed to be 1 bowl and take 30 minutes or less. Let me know if you like it!

    I never heard of this one before! Thanks.

    You don't want to use a website's nutrition information. Use the recipe builder and make your own... it's often not accurate at all (especially when the recipe uses cups etc).

    I remember doing a recipe on a website that was supposed to be 120 calories and it turned out 250 calories!
