Am I getting a better view of the recipe than everyone else? Everything is there and perfectly clear. And as far as servings go, not everyone eats the same portions not to mention I can look at a recipe and tell how much it's going to make and know if I have to double or triple it.

It is too bad that folks do not read the recipe. The parsley and garlic are listed--top two ingredients. Just the servings amount not shown--- Need better edit on this section and I would say--You cannot post unless the recipe is complete with amount to be served, if lay persons submitting recipes. Most sites that publish recipes do this and so should this one.
