I made an omelet this morning and put in these ingredients to be calculated for my food diary. This recipe fed two people and the nutrition facts that came up said there was 102 g. of Protein. There is no way this is correct and now I'm wondering what else isn't accurate. Am I doing something wrong? Help!!!



.50 lb(s), Deer Sausage
4 large, Egg
1 tsp(s), Parsley, fresh
1 dash, Salt
1 cups, Broccoli
0.50 grams, Onion
1 tsp, Garlic, raw
1 fluid ounce, Skim Milk
1 dash, Spices, pepper, black
1 Tbsp, Extra Virgin Olive Oil

    Have a look at each ingredient's nutrition and identify the one(s) that have the high protein. Then you can double check that particular ingredient against other entries.

    1/2 pound of deer meat is around 50g of protein
    4 eggs has around 28g of protein
    1 oz of milk has about 1g of protein
    Broccoli has protein but not much, maybe 1-2g
    Nothing else has a significant amount of protein unless the quantities are way off

    Really depends on how lean the sausage is. A half pound of lean venison can be as high as 70g of protein but sausage meat is likely more fatty and less protein. Perhaps you input lean venison instead of sausage meat?

    Sometimes when you put the amount in, you have to adjust the portion for 2 people since you technically had only half. Either that or someone put in the wrong info for the meat. But often times its the serving size that gets messed up.
