The nutrition information on this recipe says the recipe makes 1 serving and the calories per serving is 23.5. Do not be fooled!! That is not correct. I am not a nutritionist but I know you can not eat an entire can of chickpeas and only consume 23.5 calories. That being said I will still try the recipe but food.com please correct your mistake!!!
