I'm not sure if the servings per recipe is really 1?? With 4 pitas??
Since this is a diabetic site and many of us take insulin, it is extremely important that this info. is accurate!

I don't believe 19.2 carbs total. One 4" whole wheat pita has 16 carbs. A full size pita, 6" has 35 carbs. And this whole recipe is for one serving!
