June 30, 2011This recipe can be modified because it contains a large amount of salt!! It seems that you could just add a dash of salt rather than the 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
The serving size could also be reduced to a serving size of a couple of tablespoons, therefore reducing the amount of carbohydrates eaten.
I also recommend adding a couple of tablespoons of flax seeds to improve the nutritional value and reducing the amount of almond slivers to 1/4 cup to reduce that amount of fat in the recipe.
