[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree that DH sounds like a jerk. Putting that aside, I do sometimes wonder whether my go-to meal of Barilla Plus pasta and Rao's sauce with frozen broccoli on the side constitutes a healthy, homemade meal that is any better than takeout. Or when I use canned black beans, tortillas, and rice for burritos. I assume it is healthier than takeout because I'm controlling some of the oil and sodium, and I can toss in some fresh veggies, but it's not the same as a fully homemade meal from scratch. [/quote] Um, yes, your meals are exponentially better than takeout. I do WW and you can calculate your recipes - burritos made with whole wheat tortillas, brown rice, canned beans and low-fat cheese are about 1/4 of the fat and carb load of a restaurant burrito. Ditto your pasta and sauce that isn't loaded with fat and cheese. Is this the Betty Crocker worship thread all of a sudden? Good Lord.[/quote]
