[QUOTE="ladybird64, post: 1032011, member: 29023"] Cryptic title I know, but couldn't think of another! I have the My Fitness Pal app, fairly useful but I must admit that trying to figure out what gets added and what doesn't is giving me the hump:grumpy:. I digress.. Tonight I had the leftover meat sauce from the Bolognese yesterday, but with added garlic and cayenne and fresh chili to spice it up. I had a small spoonful of corn (doesn't spike me) and turned some red cabbage into the creamed dish I read about here, steamed it, fried off some parma scraps with garlic (we like garlic:D), added the cabbage and then added some cream. And damned nice it was too. But how on earth would I start to find out how many carbs are in that? Do I have to go through every single ingredient, because it will irritate the heck out of me if I do. I really don't have the time just now, not to mention trying to figure out how much exactly I had of each ingredient.:banghead:. Suggestions please [/QUOTE]
