Thanksgiving is the one time that we go all out and I just buy at the lowest cost all the things that mean thanksgiving. I will make pie today or tomorrow, we are having a small turkey roast because only four of us eat turkey.
This isn't it prolly the most popular thing I've said on this blog, but, I tell it like it is. One of the reasons some people have a huge food bill is, frankly, they eat too much. This just causes two problems-- their food bill is high and their weight makes a health issue. Now, I realize there are teen children that burn what they eat.
But, if you are eating two loaded pizzas for three people, you are probably eating too much. Stick to the recommended daily allowances unless your doctor has told you different. There are certain things, I just can't eat, according to my doctors. I still keep to a therapeutic diet and keep on a small budget. Serve a salad with your pizza. You will fill us, and have less carbs.
Of your recipe is for bigger portions than you can eat, or should eat, make less.
I recently started measuring out the pasta and making a half batch of Mac and cheese, or casserole. My daughter doesn't eat it, and that leaves granddaughter, my husband and I. Waste not, want not,
There are ways you can get more fiber in your diet, I try to get pasta with vegetables in it or with double fiber. Fruits and veggies have fiber in them. I buy good whole wheat bread. If you serve a quarter of your plate protein, a quarter starch, and the rest salad and veggies. You will be better off.
I lost sixty pounds, just watching my carbs. I read labels, Look for the serving size, the amount of carbs and subtract the dietary fiber. I'm rarely hungry and maintain my weight.
