? about Bisquick

  • Well, I experimented and it was a success! I took a cup of lower fat Bisquick and 6oz of diet coke and whala!!!!!! Two big yummy pancakes! Now the question is...how many points could it be? I took the nutritional facts and for 1/3 cup (a serving but dry or prepared?) is 3 points. But if that's prepared with milk and eggs, then what I concocted HAS to be less. Any idea how I could figure it out? I ate both the great pancakes anyway , smeared with a tablespoon of low sugar strawberry preserves...so if anyone can help me out, that would be great!! Thanks!
  • Well I just checked the box of my Light Bisquick and it says 140 cals, 1.5 fat and 1 gram fiber - that would be without any of the added ingredients so get out your slide and figure it, my guess would be about 3 pts - then you'd have to add the jam points.

    Most packages give you the nutritional value as is - no added ingredients. If you're lucky, you'll get both values for prepared with the eggs, milk, etc and without. I prefer this method.

    I've found that making stuff from scratch is much easier for making my program work as I can usually skinny the recipes down myself better than any of the prepared mixes out there.
  • Yeah, well I figured it out to 3pts and i ate the whole cups worth, i did put it into weight watchers recipe builder and it came out to 8pts, oh well, small lunch it is, LOL Thanks!
