Green Goddess Smoothie

I was surprised to see a listing of grams of protein in the Green Goddess Smoothie listing 8 grams of protein with the use of almond milk. My daughter is a RD, CSSD, LD and has recommended my using soymilk for additional calcium needs at 65 years, and because it has way more protein than almond milk. I decided to enter the exact ingredients and amounts as listed in the recipe for two servings. The results difference were: 4.2 grams protein vs. the listed 8 grams. Also, there was another important discrepancy with the carbs: 40.5 carbs vs. the 11 listed. This is an even more, I feel, important difference for those affected with diabetes.
If My Fitness Pal continues to "advertise" nutrition with recipes, they need to make sure that the recipes featured are accurate with nutrition "facts".
