    Um. The nutritional data is only for the eggs. No way all that bread, butter and sugar would be only 100-something calories! ;) - 8/12/10

    Makes me look forward to getting up in the morning! Used thawed frozen blueberries with juice, added flaxseed, powdered milk thinned, cocoa powder AND crushed dark chocolate bar, margarine instead of butter. Moist as I wanted. Will make again. - 4/21/14
