Ha Ha It Tried to Get ME

Olibobwa Posts: 123 Joined: 2006/06/12	2007/07/14, 06:29 PM I made some chili today. I've written down all the nutritional information so that I can break it down per serving. 1385 calories 3.5 g fat 9550 mg sodium 283 g carbs 73 g fiber 90 g sugar 70 g protein This is before I add in the ground beef, 3.5 lbs that are 77% lean & 33% not lean. I drained 1.25 cups of the not lean. I don't know what % that is or how it affects the nutritional facts of the ground beef. Can someone help me out?

In the future, if you can find extra lean beef, that would be better.

I think I'll try that next time. Thanks ya'll btw Velasca that new picture is Smoking! Fly your pictures are the same as when I first started surfing this site but you're definitally a Hottie too!! Thanks again:big_smile:
