I hate it when this happens!  That looks so good, but when I put pen to paper I came up with 649+  calories per serving!  What to do, what to do!  Calories or carbs?

I love bacon!

Thanks for sharing!

I know EXACTLY what you mean!!! About 2 years ago I started trying to eat healthier. The initial part was just eliminating a lot of sugar b/c I got married and my new husband is diabetic. At the time I noticed that some of the foods lower in sugar were usually higher in fats.

Then after I got the band I started actually reading labels. Going lower carb, lower calorie, higher protein. Started off noticing the Healthy Choice dinners or Lean Cuisine. Though they were very healthy in some aspects, they were high in others (usually carbs or sugar).

So it always seems like a constant delema (yes I realize that's misspelled. my spelling has been pointed out to me on more than one occasion on here, lol).

And yes I love bacon too! I actually joke with some of my DS friends for them to have a pound of bacon for me! Yum!

Maria, here's a tip - if you just start typing in any word, regardless of whether it's misspelled or not, into a Google search, Google will almost always give you the correct spelling immediately below.  I use it all the time.

Great recipe - I've served this when I've had company and it always gets licked off the plates!

I tend to multitask too often and kind of lose attention to details. If I'm writing a letter I do spell check. Tend to just throw up whatever on the forum posts though...........but thanks.

I really don't know. Lisa O. said she had it figured at like 659 I think? If that's the case, go with calorie count or carb count? It does seem like is a food is "healthy" in one respect, it's not in another. :-(
