How many calories are in a big bowl of spaghetti?
I have never cooked less than 2oz serving of pasta in 36 years.I have always taken the YOLO.The approach is box or nothing.
My counter argument is that measuring cups and food labels are full of error.
You are downing 250 calories if you think you are eating 190 calories of peanut butter.It is easy to go over calories and think you are doing everything perfectly.
This is called Yuge.How come I am not losing weight even though I have a deficit of calories?This is why.
Every last bit of pasta will be packed in by some people.Others will have a pile of spaghetti.rotini is hard to measure because of their shape.
The scale is the answer.There is no subjectivity when it comes to what a cup is.It is 100g.
The calories for 1 serving of pasta are listed on the nutrition label.Here are a few different types and shapes.
Since they equal out to the same amount cooked, I grouped them by size on the Barilla website.
I cooked pasta the way it should be cooked.I followed the directions.
I boiled up 4-5 quarts of water, threw in the pasta and felt it until it was like a fresh piece of gum.Dumped the water and started weighing it.
I pray for your soul if you boil the shit out of yours.My serving size is a little different from yours.
Take the YOLO approach to cooking pasta and weigh out about 5 ounces.200 calories is how much that will be.The rest of the macros are here.
Don't have that awkward conversation of asking your girl to put a scale in her purse and use something you always have on you...your hand.
