How much protein in my goulash?

I make a wonderful protein goulash that has yummy Turkey burger, several types of beans maybe some quinoa and fresh spinach and tomatoes. I am looking for a website that will measure my protein in a half a cup. Any suggestions?

Check out the Baritastic app as well. It's free and does the same things as myfitnesspal. It works with your fitbit, etc.

I use Bariastic and I've put in my personal recipes. I love goulash and have never had it like that. Can you send me the recipe in my private messages?

I just saw a recipe for a stuffed bell pepper bake. it uses beef, white rice, bell peppers, cheese, garlic, and tomato sauce. I thought about doing it with ground chicken, bell peppers, mozzarella, garlic, diced Italian tissues, and quinoa
Sounds good to me, you and FluffY Chix are our chefs on BP. Both of you really rock in the KITCHEN.

This is my go-to recipe calculator: https://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-calculator.asp

Since what counts as "a serving" varies so much for me, here is what I do to get the protein per serving:

  • Weigh the pan I'll be using
  • Use a recipe calculator set to "this makes one serving" to get the total protein for whatever I'm making.
  • Cook the food.
  • Weigh the pan again once I'm done cooking.
  • Subtract the first weight from the second (to remove the pan and find out what the food weighs).
  • Now I have the total protein (from the online calculator) and however many ounces of food the recipe makes!
  • Now divide the total amount of protein by the total amount of ounces to get the protein per ounce.
  • When you measure out your meal, you can weigh how many ounces you serve yourself and figure out how much protein that is by multiplying.
