Mix vs Prepared

((I tried to search for this...I was having trouble finding it))

I just made a pancake. It said 1/4 cup mix was 130 calories. The "prepared" was 200 calories. I only added water to the mix before I put it in the pan. I have taken into account the teaspoon (measured!!) of oil that I put in the pan.

I think the 200 calories would only be if I had added milk, right? I think the instructions mentioned milk...

Sorry if this has been asked a million times before.

    You are right. The only reason the calorie count would go up is if you add a mixer with a caloric count, such as milk.
