    28 carbs per serving is *NOT* low carb, not by a long shot. It may be a healthy meal, but it should not be labeled low carb, for those that are actually eating low carb... this is MORE than a single day's worth of carbs. - 10/12/16

    I was just wondering... this recipe has over 600 calories per serving and that is half my daily calorie allotment. How is this a good recipe for those on weight loss or even maintaining?

    I am a low carber so that is more important than calorie count on my plan. I have lost 110 pounds to date and I eat 1700-1800 calories per day. It works for me but I know it is not for everyone.
