Dressing: Tomato paste → ButterGrains: Quinoa → White riceHigh-calorie vegetables: Sweet potato → PotatoCooking method: grilled → deep-fried
  • The lower-calorie version uses grilled sweet potato, grilled broccoli and quinoa, so most of the plate is vegetables and a plain grain.
  • The higher-calorie side swaps in fried potato and fried white rice, then adds butter and full-fat mayonnaise by the tablespoon.
  • Oil from frying plus creamy dressing changes the calorie density much more than the plate size changes.
