Food and Calories

There is one thing I really look at on labels and recipes that have them is the nutrition information.  I don't count calories per say, but I do try to pick lower calorie foods and recipes.  Not all recipes I pick have a lower calorie count, but if I do my best to pick healthier meals for myself and my family it makes me feel a lot better about feeding it to them.

On http://allrecipes.com most recipes come with the nutrition information.  Even cookies have the nutrition information!  Not many sites will show you what the nutrition information is for what you are making, but there are some sites that you can use to find out.  This site is on www.fitwatch.com and it's a Recipe Analyzer.  It helps you find out how many calories and other nutrition information are in the recipe you are going to make.
