/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2009/07/697231_400x379.jpg)
One of my favourites, this is definitely worth cooking and storing if you can. This is broth and dumplings, and is certainly calorie heavy!
9. Mashed Potato ...
Calorie heavy already, at 480 calories per cup, but loaded with cheese and butter this is one of the heaviest foods, and also the easiest to make!
10. Homemade Pie ...
Whether its cottage pie or fish pie, serve a large portion with mash and vegetables for a calorie heavy meal.
These are my top ten calorie heavy foods, which I believe can easily be incorporated into a diet. If you can think of others, please let me know!
