This category includes common home-cooked dinners like lasagna, popular convenience meals like macaroni and cheese, and restaurant dishes like Peking duck and spring rolls. Dishes and meals are composed of several foods that are cooked together, and thus the total nutritional value can vary quite a lot. To make a meal, foods are combined in a way such that there’s a mix of carbohydrates, fats, and protein are combined to help meet the needs of a balanced diet, and because these prepared dishes are made from more than one ingredient, they are often calorie dense. One serving of this side dish contains a significant amount of total daily calories, as the calorie chart on this page indicates. When preparing dishes and meals from scratch, it can be complicated to review the nutrition facts of each individual ingredient; however, a programmed calorie counter (e.g., YAZIO) or recipe analyzer can add up the calories per serving and offer a nutritional breakdown. These tools can make it easier to begin planning and making healthy meals at home rather than relying on packaged foods.
