My NUT did not include the nutritional value for this, so I added the Protein from all the ingredients and divided by 8 since I cut the finished product into 8 equal squares to make about 1 ounce servings. With the ingredients I bought, I calculated that each 1 oz serving had about 6.5 grams of protein.
