NEVER bring clams to a boil!! Add them after you remove from the heat and let them heat through. Otherwise you will have yucky, chewy, nasty clams.

I would like to try this recipe but I can only find TRAINED clams. does anyone have any extra "untrained" clams? (look at the ingredient list)

The rule of thumb for figuring calories is:

9 calories for every 1 gr. of fat
4 calories for every 1 gr. protein
4 calories for every 1 gr. carbs
7 calories for every 1 gr. alcohol

my calculation based on this info is 224 calories per serving

Sorry, I am diabetic and perhaps my problem is unique…easy to digest carbs such as POTATOES give me diarrhea.
So at least in my book this is NOT a diabetic friendly recipe.

This recipe sounds good. Many of us are watching our weight so it would be good to have the calories for a serving.

Great taste and easy to make. I have IBS and thought it might trouble my stomach, but it did not.
