How to Use this Blog!

Disclaimer: I am not a professional at any of the items posted. Most are customized recipes, to which I have provided reference links for everything used. The FF meter, however is my creation, and can be used for your reference. The Nutrition Facts are based off of output from the Lose It! app, which I do not own rights to.

In each recipe post, I will try to include 2 main things:

1) "FF meter" - this is just something I created, to help rate a foods ratio of tastiness to healthiness. The top half represents the taste, and the bottom represents the nutrition piece. The arrows show where they are on the scale from "Fast" to "Fat." The *BEST* food ever, would have FAT-rated taste (all the way to the right), and FAST-rated nutritional value (all the way to the left). This means, it tastes amazing, but it's so healthy you can binge on it. My goal in life would probably be to find this food. :)

For example:

This particular recipe tastes good (Fat)--which is good--, but the nutrition (Between Fast and Fat) ranks in the middle. Meaning, it's not super healthy and should still be eaten in measured portions, but it tastes so good you wouldn't suspect it to be healthy at all.

2) Nutrition Facts - This is for your reference to see approximately how the recipe rates in terms of its nutritional value. These numbers are based off of the Lose It! app, which I use to input ingredients and output the Nutrition Facts as seen on each recipe. If there are different parts to the recipe, I will try to include extra segments to determine where the calories/nutrition are for each portion. These are based on my determined portion size for the recipe. 

For example:

According to this nutrition data, I recommend cutting this pie into 12 slices serving size. The "Filling only" portion shows you that if you make the pie crustless, it is definitely healthier.
