[QUOTE="sugarsweetDino, post: 1032028, member: 255689"] From the added ingredients you mentioned, the only one that i would consider adding as carbs would be the "small spoonful of corn", (assuming it is corn flour??) and that amount is minimal...! Lets say 10g, plus any amount of cream you added, 5g carbs for every 100ml of cream. All the rest are not counting as carbs. I must say i am a type 1 insulin dependent but carbs are carbs and i never considered Bolognese when adding insulin, (not using cream or corn) only the loads and loads of Tagliatelle i munch :hungry:(i always cook it with garlic+ground cumin seeds+fresh parsley+red&green pepper+enough crushed dried chili to give it a "tang"). If it helps: meat, veg, fish = no carbs ( we are talking about "normal" portions of veg) [/QUOTE]
