For those of us not as tech savy as oldestgal, it would be nice to have the nutrition info included. Just saying...
OK - is it SO HARD TO FIGURE OUT THE NUTRITIONAL INFO YOURSELF? There are lots of resources on the web to do this...
I'm interested in what people have to say about the TASTE.
Just sayin....
i would like to see the nutritional facts as well-my doctor has advised me to cut out the salt from my diet. thanx!
When saying a lighter version does this take into play salt and fat content. A print out of the nutrition facts would be great at the end of each selection.
I add my voice to those who would like to see the nutritional information.
Thanks :)

For those who want the nutritional value for this recipe, I found it in my hard copy collection of Everyday Food, Issue 9. It's 282 cal. per serving; 12.6 g. of fat; 23.6 g. of protein; 18.6 g. of carbs; 4.3 g. of fiber.
Instead of light mayo, you could also try soy mayo. Enjoy!
This is 5 points if you use fat free mayo!
THIS IS GOOD! I USED TO BE ON WW, BUT NOW SUZANNE SUMMERS AND SHE SAYS FORGET THE COUNTING. I'M LOSING AND LOVE IT.
Need the nutritional info for my points count (Weight Watchers)
Yes, we do need the nutrition info!
It says it's 4 servings, Danny, but NI would be nice, particuarly for those following weight watchers.
I agree that we need the nutritional info. My husband is a diabetic and so I since I do the cooking i have to watch the carbs for him
Please add nutritional information including fat, calories, carbs etc. Thanks.
Please give nutritional info along with how many servings. As a prediabetic we need all the info if its to be useful to us! Carbs, cholesterol AND calories all count!Thanks!
I would like to see nutritional information added to all the recipes for those of us who have to watch our weight! Thanks :)
