Hello!
Two questions – first… on the french toast recipe you say “berries” – all the berries on the exchange list are 200g – except for strawberries. Is the macro difference so miniscule that it does not matter the berry or the “mixed berry” that you use?
Second… on the chicken/rice recipe… you say broccoli… or Peas… Broc is a veggie – peas are a starchy carb? Again… are the macros difference not a concern?
BTW – kudos on both recipes… they are fantastic… and thanks to Maureen for the tip on Jasmine rice… FABULOUS!
Hello!
Two questions – first… on the french toast recipe you say “berries” – all the berries on the exchange list are 200g – except for strawberries. Is the macro difference so miniscule that it does not matter the berry or the “mixed berry” that you use? It is not a big enough difference, so you can use whatever berries you prefer 🙂
Second… on the chicken/rice recipe… you say broccoli… or Peas… Broc is a veggie – peas are a starchy carb? Again… are the macros difference not a concern? Correct, you are dispersing 1c of veggies throughout the whole recipe so the amount will not be big enough to make a huge difference in your totals.
BTW – kudos on both recipes… they are fantastic… and thanks to Maureen for the tip on Jasmine rice… FABULOUS!
Thank you! And sorry Naomi… I wrote “Maureen” – but thanks on the Jasmine rice… very good!!!
No worries, so glad you like the rice 🙂
