I submitted a correction for this posting. The ingredients measured in tablespoons are indeed teaspoons. There is an official copy directly on UNO's website here http://www.unos.com/about/press/2009/0109_1.html.

I made this last night and was very good. The only thing I did was take it out of the pan and put it on the rack in the oven for about 5 or 10 min to crisp it up better.
