I have a lot of recipes that I have picked up after the past few years but don't know the carolers on any of them per serving does this site have a place where we can plug a recipe in and get the calories for that recipe per serving?

Thanks
Giz

    I haven't found a place on MFP that has that function, but I recently found this website where you can do just that...

    You have to know how many servings the recipe makes, though.

    Not yet. Mike (the creator) assured me that one was in the works. Until it is ready to roll, I use www.sparkrecipes.com I know there are others, this is just the one that I chose!

    you can put in all the ingredients to your diary by dividing them by serving. its really not that difficult to estimate servings, usually its .5-1 cup.

    If you create an account at livestrong.com, they have a link where you can create your own recipe, save it, and it shows the amount of calories per serving. :)

    that is what I ususally do. I figure if I measured all the ingreds, then divide by say 6 (for lasagna) it is perfect
