At the bottom of the drawer I found what I was looking for, and I also found some recipes. I have no idea where this came from or who gave it to me, but it looks good and worth trying. There was nutrition info with it: 23 g protein, 2 g fat, 19 g carbohydrate, and 188 calories per serving. Photo: allrecipes.com 05-27-15
