How do you measure a cup of cooked rutabaga? Best I can tell, it is equivalant to two cups of raw. I had two cups yesterday for lunch, so I assummed this was all the vegetables I should eat. Correct?

Also, is it within guidlines to have it again this week? (my new favorite vegetable) or do you count my "serving" as "twice" because of the quanity?

Sorry for starting a new thread; tried posting this in the what are you eating thread but no response.

Thanks in advance!

Wow! Lots of new threads with questions that are duplicate threads today or could be answered in the daily thread

All foods will cook down so it is important to measure raw & then you know how much you have after it is cooked. Then, of course, mashed measured differently than chunks so it depends on how you are eating it.
Start with raw. Measure how much you have. Measure again after cooked.

Then you know how much cooked = raw.

Some people say only 1 c occasional veggies/serving. Others say 2. The sheet isn't clear.
