Along with lentils, the aforementioned three foods are my primary source of carbs. And yet, these foods are surprisingly (relatively) low in calories. The only problem is they're surprisingly low in carbs. There are obvious exceptions like risotto and mashes potatoes (though, all that really adds is butter or margarine).
Can anyone suggest to me solid carb sources that also provide a larger amount of calories?
In other words, I want more bang for my buck. I used to eat a lot of plain, long-grain (may have been medium) rice with my meals. The only problem was that 3/4 cup (which filled over half of my dinner plate) contained only 160 calories! I've been going for more pasta these days, but I'm wondering if there are other good sources I should try.
I really appreciate any help you can give me. And, sorry I haven't been on much lately. I post here only ever so often because I can usually find anything I need to know from a select few members. I really appreciate those of you who take the time to share your knowledge with us less-experience folk. You guys have the right to arrogant and unwilling to help others, but you're not. That's very admirable in my books. Thanks again!
Okay, I gotta go flip my steak
