Hi Jackie
That sounds about right, but I guess it is also about how much your total meal weighs, so if the meal contains 6.3g in fat and is only 100g in total then it is 6.3% fat, but if the total meal is 200g, that would be 3.15% fat which would be great.

You will get used to reading the packets of things to work it out, I find it easiest to look for the percentage rather than the total fat or fat per serving if it is things that I will be putting together.

Hi Jackie
I never bother with weighing meals myself. Just work out from the pack how much in weight your quorn fillet and rice would be, I'm just saying that because I don't know if the rice, for example, is one portion or more.
