About 1/3 of a cup would equal a SB grain serving.

Just want to note that this probably isn't low-fat cheese so would be ok only for occasional use.

I've only eaten them twice - the kids love them, I find them sort of... I dunno... chewy? lol thick? So, since that eats up a lot of my grain for the day just eating a half cup of "ok" tortellini - I think I'll find something else.

I serve my kids this as well -- often on a night when I know they won't like what I'm preparing for dh and I. They are usually glad (except 4 y.o. who thinks they're spicy -- ??). I agree -- definite kid fare! Congrats on tightening up your Phase 2 -- you have your sights set on that cruise and you are going to be smokin' hot!!!

Yeah, uh, I ate corn tortilla chips at On the Border today - birthday dinner with my best friend. But my entre was a border smart meal w/ 21g of fiber, less than 600 calories and only 10g of fat... and I Drank two glasses of water.
