    I plugged the ingredients into nutritiondata.com and came out with the following for the ENTIRE RECIPE (divide by how many servings you cut it into to get your per serving breakdown):

    3488 calories
    1173 calories from fat
    128g fat (24g saturated)
    Cholesterol 423mg
    Sodium 2754mg
    Total Carbohydrate 445g
    Dietary Fiber 51g
    Sugars 261g
    Protein 200g
    Total Omega 3: 947mg
    Total Omega 6: 8639mg

    45% carbs/34% fats/21% protein

    Of course, this is just an estimate, depending on what ingredients you end up using. I plugged in the generic soy protein isolate, Kirkland (Costco) brand organic creamy peanut butter, 1/2 cup each dried raisins, cranberries, and apples, 1 T of canola oil for the pan . . .

    The Omega 3:6 ratio is isn't that great (1:9), and the sugar seems high to me, but there you have it!

    If you switch the brown sugar for splenda and the peanut butter for almond butter I think it improves both of those issues. Don't you think?
    Slow and steady (like a train!)

    The sugar goes down about 100 grams (for the entire recipe), which is good.

    Almonds do not have a good Omega 3:6 ratio though, so this substitution is actually WORSE (1:18):

    Omega 3: 1666mg
    Omega 6: 29767mg

    Oops! I messed up and entered two large egg whites, rather than two large whole eggs. So, I edited the data in the original recipe to reflect that . . .
