Subject: Nutritional listings

I believe that it would be useful to list the calories, fats, salt, etc. of the recipes that you publish. The S.F. Chronicle's food page does, and I find it very helpful in deciding if I want to pursue the recipe further, tweak it, or leave it.
Cheers. ?whynot?

I'm there with you!

As a diabetic on an insulin pump I need to know the amount of carbs going into the body...<GRIN>

We have to do alot of math with the CI recipes and then we write all over the cookbooks to keep the info handy. I'm glad Dh is an engineer!!!

It would also help if all ingredients were in weights. If I'm making a casserole or soup I need the weights of everything or I have to redish the entire recipe and get a weight so I can know how many carbs per ounce.

And then I have to pull the pump out of my pocket and punch in numbers and have Dh over my shoulder looking at my readout and asking me what did I eat that I didn't dose for....Drats...Caught again....
