    This recipe was incomplete. Water was mentioned in the details but not in the recipe listing. Not worth trying to figure out! - 9/1/09

    Something's not right with the nutritional breakdown.

    carbs + protein = 46.1 grams
    46.1 * 4 = 184.4 calories

    Yet per serving the calories stated is 147.8. And I haven't even added in the fat yet. - 8/31/09
