in Food and Nutrition
Hi I love cooking and baking from scratch, so I’m wondering....
Does anyone have any good recipe sites or books to suggest that tells calories rather than having to create recipe all the time?
Many thanks x

    Go to your recipe builder (recipes) so you can more easily log what you make.

    I have 2 favorite cookbooks that I pull from a lot. They both have nutritional lists per serving for the dishes.

    Giada's Feel Good Food by Giada de Laurentiis
    ... and...
    The Skinnytaste Cookbook by Gina Homolka (with Heather K. Jones, R.D.)

    Hope that helps!

    Many if the recipes on the bon apetite website have the calories. I would still, as @RodaRose mentioned, put them in the recipe builder. That way you can be more accurate.

    There's absolutely nothing that compares to Copymethat. It's a Chrome extension that is amazing. One click and it copies any recipe from the internet and stores it in your own cookbook. You can also custom create your own recipes. You can follow others like on Spotify if they cook like you or eat like you want to eat. Very best I've found.

    I agree with the Skinnytaste.com I was showing of her website today at work.
    I still put the ingredients into mfp so I know I am accurate.

    Skinnytaste.com
    Budgetbyte.com
    Bakingmischief.com
    recipetineats.com

    Although like @RodaRose mentioned, you can always input those recipe from websites via "recipe" -> and then put the recipe url into the "recipe importer" to get the calorie & nutrition info for that recipe. Quite easy :)
