The nutritional info for sugar at 22g sounds way to high for a diabetic. My husband is working to get his blood sugar readings down and I would be fearful to use this recipe??

Sondralucy, I too, wish they would show serving size on this and other recipes. I have a couple of Diabetic cookbooks where they don't show the serving size either. Frustrating.
