    Notes

    As always, our nutrition facts were calculated by a computer api and some ingredients were not exactly calculated, there was no lite soy sauce or alternative butter option so values will be slightly better with those corrected.  If you have any special nutrition concerns you should always check it out with your physician as your situation is fact dependent.  Our healthy Thai recipes are as healthy as we can make them using what we know. We are not dietitians or nutritionists so follow up with a specialist if needed and let us know what we can do better in the comments section below.  🙂
