Calories and protein are set per recipe; carbs and fat are estimated from the remaining calories and the recipe's main carb source, so treat them as a close guide rather than a lab measurement. Prices are rough per-serving estimates for UK supermarkets and vary by store and season. Nothing here is medical or dietary advice.
