I think the weight gain recipe is off. According to MyFitnessPal, that amount of chicken will yield 82 grams of protein per serving. While that many grams of potatoes are 58g of carbs. Maybe the 1135g for both chicken and potatoes are incorrect?
There are many different food selections on myfitnesspal and often times they don’t match. If you chose selections that are different than mine it won’t match up perfect. After looking back on the selections I chose, I’m confident they are close
