The firecracker slaw has been a big hit . I have made it twice in one week for two different events. That is saying something for me, the girl that could never boil water. (Smile)

Until you get an answer, you can look up the nutrition for yourself. Google the major ingredient (three cheese tortellini) and you'll find it has 50 grams of carbs in one cup. The recipe calls for a bit less than 2 cups of tortellini, so you're looking at around 100 grams for the entire recipe for one ingredient. Divide by 4 servings and you get 25 grams per person. This is just approximate, but it's still not exactly low carb.

Does anyone know how many grams of Carbs are in this dish? Recently diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes and right now limited on carb intake until they get my blood sugar down and under control. Trying to find different recipes the entire family can eat that still fits with what mom needs! :)
