This looks delicious. HOWEVER, when will FOK start adding the necessary nutritional information? As a type 1 diabetic, it is always a guessing game with each of your recipes. The amount of insulin I take depends on this information. How about listing a serving size and the number of carbs, calories, grams of protein etc.? Without it, your recipes are worthless to me. So, I won’t be getting the books, magazines, app or anything else you offer. It’s so unfortunate. Can’t you help a sister out?!
Hi M.L.G.,
We hear you, and we’re sorry that you haven’t been able to use our recipes. We’re aiming to add nutritional information by fall of this year. Right now we’re in the process of calculating the nutritional info for all 1,000+ recipes. The next step will be to make some functional changes to our website so that we can display that info in a user-friendly way. Please stay tuned!
Thank you,

This soup is so delicious. I’ll be making it again tomorrow.
I’m going to try using nopales/cactus.
What can you replace the 2 c of peas for the recipe?
I’m going to try black beans. They are in another tortilla soup recipe I have used.
I had the same thought, don’t like peas in soup. Maybe edmame?
So satisfying!
