I will help with the cooking spray - 53 calories.
The whole pan is a single serving and not even all I ate for lunch. If no one gets close by tomorrow I will give a hint.

I am horrible at guessing calories, which is why I measure everything I can to the gram. But I'll guess approximately 1000-1200 calories.
I am not a volume eater myself. If I make stirfry I have 250 grams plus 1 serving of white rice for dinner and then I'm full. Snacking is my real downfall. I would easily go back every hour and eat another two Oreos all day long not out of hunger, mostly boredom.1 -
3000

i reckon about 6000

Is that one egg or 2? I'm going with 470 or 540.0

Egg beaters and/or egg whites are a dieter’s friend. You really get bang for your calories.

No white rice.
That is a 14 inch pan and the final product is just shy of 3 pounds of cooked food so you have to up all of your quantities. The onion for instance is ~6 oz not 1.0 -
Is that cauliflower?
I figured so far 1 bag of shrimp, so about 750g frozen; but about 400g cooked.
This would leave 900g cooked.
The egg beaters (which I thought were full eggs initially), would be about 300g.
So we're down to 600g
I figured about 300g "rice" and 300g for the "rest of the veggies"
But if that's not rice?!?!?!
Boy: that's a tough one!
OK: I give up!
I'll go with: it is relatively not energy dense (egg-beaters, veggies, shrimp which is at 1 Cal per gram at best).
So 1K Cal for the 1300g0 -
It was riced cauliflower. The shrimp was already cooked. It weighed 198 grams which I logged as 200.
The total weight can be a little misleading. Because there is not much oil and I put 8oz of mushrooms in it the water content remained high but that also makes it more filling. That is one of my staple dishes. I can shave 300 calories off of it when I want or add more to it. It's base version supplies about 60g of protein and 19g of fiber. With the shrimp that is about 120g of protein. I am not saying anyone should eat it but if anyone was curious as to how I eat that is one of the cornerstones and I eat something like it at least 5 days a week. I can change it enough to keep it from getting too monotonous but even if I couldn't it covers so much of what I need that it makes the rest of the day easier. I am, as you probably know, all about easy.
The dish was logged at 772 calories so really any guess 720-820 would have been accurate enough. @fred77 came in closest at 600.
Someone else want to post a dish?2 -
I might this evening - I plan on making fettuccine alfredo for dinner with salmon!1
