The first recipe uses Splenda, which is basically 8 carbs per 1/3 cup due to the powder it is mixed with and the cream is 3 or 4 per half cup. Neither of those have fiber to subtract.
So that's what makes it much more up there. I use zero carb liquid sweetener and the mayo has no carbs. And yes the onions do add a little. They are almost 3 net carbs per quarter cup. |
