How many calories in a medium to large jacket potato with cheese and beans

[warmbath]

Just a wide scale on Lose IT, from about 250 to 800 calories!

Depends how much topping.. I'd say about 800 ish

Nutracheck says 435 cals without butter.

Weigh it all and add it up.

I'd say close to 800

1/2 tin of beans = 200
Baked potato = 200
50g grated Red Leicester = 200 (in reality I'd probs my have double!!)
Knob of butter 100-150

Absolutely this. Cheese is the devil for calories! It's devastating measuring it with a scale rather than my heart 😂

@Throwaway0912 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@Throwaway0912 I had one today as I was freezing but no more - cheese is my enemy whilst I try to wack off my Christmas excesses 🙈

Jacket potato and beans, free on slimming world. Lose the cheese and butter.

You’d need to weigh all the elements separately, as a sizeable potato with a spoonful of beans and 20g of cheese would be less than a small-ish tatie with a full 400g can and a load of cheese.

the more you weigh stuff the easier it gets to estimate

Try using parmesan (or another strong cheese) instead of cheddar. You need far less to get a cheese kick because it's so strong, so calories are also less.

I would have 25g of cheese on one half, beans on the other, and no butter.
