Size Matters

Thursday, May 7th, 2009

Portion size, that is. If you’ve ever found yourself baking a cake or pie and devouring it all in a few sittings, this tip is for you.  Think portion size.

Don’t bake a cake - bake cupcakes or bake your pound cake batter in mini cake pans.  Eat one and freeze the remainder of the individual portions. Don’t bake a pie - bake small tarts. Portion puddings and ice cream into ramekins. One or two cookies is a portion size. Freeze the rest.

Once you’ve had your portion for the day, that’s it!
