I was honored recently to be asked to help a friend in the kitchen at a ladies' luncheon. I had nothing to do with preparing the food, rather, I helped her plate it so that 84 ladies could be fed in an easy fashion. The plates held quiche, green salad, pasta salad, and a muffin. I was not in my own kitchen, so it was difficult to know where utensils were located in this kitchen. It was time to scoop the pasta salad on the plates, so I looked around for a spoon. I did not find one, however, I DID find a one cup measuring spoon. It was the PERFECT size! I scooped 1 cup servings of pasta salad onto each plate. It was the perfect amount of food and looked delightful on the plates!

Great tip! xo
This is great and works especially well if you have a diabetic in your family. You can keep track of the carb and protein count easier this way.
I use my measuring cups to scoop more than I sue them to measure! I don't know what I'd do without them!
Great idea...and perfect portion size! I need to remember that! :)
Huh, I never thought about a measuring cup for portion control. Click....stored in brain. xoxo
