This is the first recipe I have tried from this website.. and I am SO glad I picked this! So easy to cook and to quote my husband, "better than restaurant quality"! That is saying a lot since he pretty much searches for new bbq places to eat at everywhere we go! SO DELICIOUS! Thank you!

Holy cow! (Or, er, chicken…) This is amazing! Easy to whip up at the beginning of the week and have on hand for busy days when I'm too tired to cook. Definite thumbs up!
does the nutrition information include it on a whole wheat bun?
Yes, it does!
I love this so much and make this a lot…but do you know the nutritional info without the bun? I usually eat it without the bun or with a Tumaros wrap! 🙂
Hey Janine,
So I did a rough estimation of the recipe without a regular hamburger bun and came up with this nutritional data: 209 calories / 6 g Fat / 1.5 g Saturated Fat / 0 g Trans Fat / 144 mg Cholesterol / 633 mg Sodium / 5 g Carbohydrates / 0 g Fiber / 19 g Sugar / 33 g Protein (Keep in mind that this information may not be 100% accurate, but it should be pretty close) Hope that helps! 🙂
Thanks so much Erin! I love this site and all these yummy recipes. I made this 2 weeks ago and I am making it again this weekend. 70 lbs down! 🙂
