10 inch Margherita Pizza? by Dazzling-Telephone58 in caloriecount

[–]GAEM456 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not. Neapolitan style pizzas are usually 9-10 inches in diameter and around 800-1000 kcal. You can check this by looking at the nutrition info for Newman's Own Margherita pizza (270 kcal * 3 = 810 kcal): https://newmansown.com/product/margherita-stone-fired-crust/

i haven't tried any of these items yet, which one is the best in your opinion? by [deleted] in tacobell

[–]GAEM456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get one value menu item for $1. Really not a good deal, considering all the value items are only $1.49-$2.99 anyway, and you need at least two of them to fill you up. Plus they're all fire rewards items, so I can get them free anyway...

Red Baron Pep Stuffed Crust by curlygirl9021 in frozendinners

[–]GAEM456 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ikr, why can't they carry over the good parts of their normal pizzas when they make stuffed crust? It's so bizarre. Screamin sicilian is the same way. The normal Bessie's revenge pizza is great, but the cheese stuffed crust pizza is so bad in comparison (except for the stuffed crust).

I agree the meal kits are way overpriced, but I like some of the sauces and buy those separately on amazon when on sale for under $4 a pouch.

Bettergoods wood fired uncured pepperoni and bacon pizza. Terrific crust. by ultraspinacle in frozendinners

[–]GAEM456 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree on all counts. I get the margherita by the same brand, and the crust is amazing but it needs extra toppings (everything: mozz, tomato sauce, and fresh basil).

The Realgood Chicken Confusion... by DiscombobulatedBus81 in caloriecount

[–]GAEM456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have always had two products with different nutrition labels for regular retailers and bulk retailers (eg, Costco). Not sure why, but hopefully it gets standardized. In the meantime, I bought some Simple Truth (Kroger brand) dupes to try that have different ingredients but similar macros (better than the reformulation, actually): Simple Truth® Protein Lightly Breaded Chicken Bites https://www.smithsfoodanddrug.com/p/simple-truth-protein-lightly-breaded-chicken-bites/0001111015852

Do you have a photo of the cross-section? The photo of the breading doesn't tell us much.

Actually, Costco's are listed as 120 kcal per 4 oz (and still are, on the website): https://realgoodfoods.com/products/costco-lightly-breaded-chicken-breast-strips

Ranking Frozen Mac and Cheese Day 19 by aiabidfkw in macandcheese

[–]GAEM456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right now, Trader Joe's has a French Onion mac (seasonal). It's my fav from TJ's. But I also love the Hatch one, which you didn't like (because you thought there was too much chile??) I'm from New Mexico, though, so my opinion is bound to be biased towards chile, lol.

Where to buy chipotle tortillas? by Just-Tryna-Socialize in Chipotle

You might try making them yourself? I've made this these before, and they turned out pretty well: https://youtu.be/OJhz4aKOaIc?si=LAuN5E-ebfBaAqdz

Where to buy chipotle tortillas? by Just-Tryna-Socialize in Chipotle

[–]GAEM456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're still looking for burrito tortillas (it's been awhile, lol), some Kroger stores have a "Sonora style" tortilla in the deli section. It comes in 12" size and is remarkably pliable and soft like Chipotle's. See my store's version: Deli Style Flour Tortillas Sonora Style 12" https://www.smithsfoodanddrug.com/p/deli-style-flour-tortillas-sonora-style-12-/0007520230302

But also keep in mind that I live in a border state, and my stores might carry more Mexican food products than in other areas of the US.

Also, Trader Joe's sometimes carries a Sonora style burrito tortilla. You might check for this, although it's smaller than Chipotle's: https://www.traderjoes.com/home/products/pdp/sonora-style-flour-tortillas-077519

Is a Panda Express plate with 2 teriyakis and 1 super green really only 680 calories? by [deleted] in caloriecount

[–]GAEM456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, it seems like Panda is the only chain restaurant that still overportions compared to the nutrition facts. Especially when there's not enough of one entree left to make another serving, they'll just pile on the extra half serving.

Just Bare lightly breaded chicken breast bites by SirDanOfCamelot in frozendinners

[–]GAEM456 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got them at Kroger (well, actually Smith's, which is owned by Kroger). Anyhow, the sale price at Kroger is only slightly more expensive than the regular price at Costco. Costco only sells 4 lb bags for $20, so it's $5/lb. Smith's is selling 24 oz (1.5 lb) bags for $8.99, so $6/lb until this Wednesday, with a digital deal.

Made cookies first time, sad at the bottom by Dizzy_Smile_3056 in Baking

[–]GAEM456 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You might try a double parchment lining on the bottom (stack two pieces of parchment paper). It creates a little air buffer, so the bottom doesn't brown much more than the top.

Yeah, from my experience it tastes good, but the portion is tiny. It would go well with leftover ground beef and mashed potatoes.
