It’s literally a one biter. I started scooping into my bowl(as you can see the crumbs on the sides of the bowl) and input my 1 scoop which is apparently 600+ calories 😢 I was craving this and so excited to eat it. I’m so sad
Was a serving 29g? Did you weigh it before you cooked it with water?

I literally eat this stuff once a month at least and have for a couple of years while on CICO. Prepared without butter is 110 per serving ( about 1/6 of the whole box). It’s a generous serving and tasty for a hearty lunch or dinner. By the way, the Aldi version is 1/3 the price and, in my opinion, better than the popular national brand. Honestly I just eyeball the final serving by putting it into a square glass storage and cutting six even pieces.

Lol this is why people can’t lose weight, they have no idea how to interpret packaging OR reasonably estimate calories. OP, one bite of stuffing simply CANNOT be 150 calories. Its 28g of DRY stuffing mix, when prepared as directed, that ends up being 150 calories after cooking.

Theoretically… if you use the calorie per gram method (carbs=4/ protein=4/ fat=9), but assumed that the stuffing was 29g of pure fat, it would only come down to 261 calories anyway so I *really* doubt that is 600 calories LOL

Add tons of celery and onion to make it taste better. Cook them first in a skillet with a little butter, until they are getting soft/translucent. Then add them in with the mix. Maybe add a bit more sage to balance out the volume. It really makes the dish better and it’s healthier (it’s worth the little bit of butter btw)

You’re saying this is 600 calories? That’s just not correct

My mindset is I eat stuff in one maybe two times a year for special occasions so I might as well go out. That is moderation stuff isn’t something I really eat anytime other than those times anyway.

doesnt make sense unless its a cheat or something. stuffing is high in carbs + fat + salt
