Al Hamichya?
Question
If you have mizonos but not a kazayis but do eat an entire meal can you make an al hamichya?
Answer
Shalom!
Thank you for your question.
Al Hamichya is only recited if one ate a “kezayit” (the size of a small matchbox) of grain product within 4 minutes. So if one ate 15 grams of cake, and 100 grams of chicken and 100 grams of vegetables, only “Borei Nefashos” will be recited.
