When I had GD I made most everything as a casserole unless I was eating a
salad. I found it easier to factor in casserole form. I would simply add
up the counts for everything that went in there and then divide it by 4 or 6
or 8 or whatever worked out best. Woe be to anyone that dared take a
portion that wasn't an exact square, rectangle or wedge because then it
would mess me up!
