Joyce,
After mixing the mix with water (that's all I use for Krustez) I made 10 waffles with 1-3/4 cup mix.
That works out to about 3 waffles for 1/2 cup of mix. It's 210 calories for 3 waffles so if you
divide 210 by 3 you get 70 calories per waffle.
I have found a lot of "fat free" products have only a few calories than their "regular" products--in
this case it seems to be only a 10 calorie difference and not that much fat.
As for fiber no, it isn't taken into account in RS much but that is the .34 dietary--that's
the fiber.

Quoted message said:being ... you may have divided the given information by the amount of

Quoted message said:made ... but maybe not multiplied the information to equal the amount of
mix you
Quoted message said:used? I would have a very hard time buying that a waffle from a regular
mix was
Quoted message said:less calories than 3 pancakes from the same companies fat free mix. Know
what I
Quoted message said:mean?
From the information you give, looks to me like the waffle is close to 1.5
points
Quoted message said:- taking a guess that fiber isn't used in your program.

Quoted message said:Hi everyone,
I made a breakfast that was great this morning and thought I'd share. It may be something you all

to
Quoted message said:Quoted message said:get the calculator up to figure them out and it keeps coming up an error, but here's the
nutrition information. The banana was 1.5 points, the powdered sugar I don't know, just a
sprinkle I would assume not many if
any
Quoted message said:Quoted message said:at all and the waffle (homemade with regular Krusteaz mix) was about 70 calories, less than 1
gram of total fat (.83 grams), 1.67 mg cholesterol,
203.34 mg sodium, 13.34 g total carbohydrates with .34 being dietary and
2.34 being sugar, 2 grams of protein. This is definately not a low carb breakfast but possibly
a fairly low point breakfast!!! Could someone let
