  2. Just wanted to let you know that the calorie count is off on this recipe unless you found crescent rolls that were less than 90 calories, and if you did I would LOVE to know about it! 🙂 By my count (using My Fitness Pal) 2 pockets are 250 calories. They are quite tasty though!

      1. Yes, that’s what I used. 🙂 You use one crescent roll for each pocket so a serving of 2 pockets couldn’t be less than 180 calories.
