How exactly do you calculate the calories in a serving of a meal you've cooked? It's probably a simple equation, but I'm not sure how to go about figuring this up.
For example, I am going to make some chili for supper tonight, and I was wondering how many calories would be in a 1 cup serving. Here is what I'm putting in my chili: 1 can of light red kindey beans (385 cal for the whole can); 1 can of petite diced tomatoes (175 for whole can); 20 oz ground turkey (220 cals per 4 oz); 1 can of diced tomatoes with mild green chilies (105 cals for whole can).
How many calories would be in a 1 cup serving of this? I didn't realize this at the store, but that turkey seems like it's kind of high in calories. Should I cut back on that, and maybe only put 1/2 - 3/4 of a pound?
Thanks for any help!! =)
