Thanksgiving Dinner Help
 

Hi
Im trying to plan for my Thanksgiving Dinner,but I have a few questions,my complete food companion(flex)book listed under S for stuffing says 1/2 cup is 4 points,Is that with the milk included that you mix it with?I make my own stuffing and fry onions in crisco oil,so would 4 points be for everything in the stuffing?Also mashed potatos is 1/2 cup 2 points would that include the milk and butter that they get mashed with?I guess everyone cooks different,but I add just a little milk and some butter to mask my potatos with.Thanks for the Help.

It is hard to say. Stuffing points they list is for the 'basic' stuffing made with butter usually.

Same with the mashed potatoes. I make Potatoes and it is 3 points for 1 1/2 cups someone else will make them and it is 4 points for 1/2 a cup.

Best bet is to use your best guess and figure out the points for your 'recipe.'
