Calories in zucchini dolma with dill and meat

Diyetkolik's reference for meat-and-dill stuffed zucchini provides about 51 kcal per 100 g. Its defined 285 g serving contains approximately 145 kcal, 9.01 g protein and 3.2 g fiber. The calculation includes the meat-and-rice filling; it is not a table for plain boiled zucchini.

How many calories are in one piece?

Zucchini size, how deeply it is hollowed and how much filling is added all affect piece weight. The source defines a 285 g serving without establishing the number of stuffed zucchini it contains. If your cooked edible piece weighs 150 g, the same recipe basis gives about 76 kcal. That example does not make 150 g a universal piece size.

Count the filling and sides correctly

The meat and rice are already included in the dish calculation. Count bread, yogurt or an extra oily sauce separately when served alongside it. Logging the whole plate as plain zucchini would leave out the filling.

Protein depends on the proportion of meat. The reference serving's roughly 9.01 g protein does not make it equivalent to a 285 g portion of plain meat. A home recipe with more meat, rice or oil will differ from the table.

A plate of 150 g dolma with 100 g plain whole-milk yogurt provides about 137 kcal and 8.21 g protein. The yogurt is outside the dolma calculation; use its own values if choosing a strained or different-fat product.

The meat-and-bulgur dolma example uses zucchini and aubergine together, with bulgur rather than rice in the filling. Using zucchini in both dishes does not establish the same cooked serving or recipe.

Why the figures are estimates

The source reports 144.72 kcal per 285 g without publishing complete ingredient weights or a cooked yield. Details from a different stuffed-zucchini recipe were not used to fill those gaps. The figures remain an approximate reference for the named dish. Vitamin A in IU was not converted to RAE, and unreported sugars and saturated fat were not treated as zero.
