We guarantee that you won’t be able to keep from nibbling on it all evening long! In fact, we predict that you will find yourself making it often because you won’t want to run out of it.” ~ Gina Marie Miraglia Eriquez nutrition information: per serving (10 servings) POWERED BY Edamam Calories484 Carbohydrates52 g (17%) Fat27 g (42%) Protein10 g (20%) Saturated Fat9 g (47%) Sodium476 mg (20%) Polyunsaturated Fat5 g Fiber4 g (15%) Monounsaturated Fat12 g Cholesterol36 mg (12%)
