Hello everyone! I just joined MyFitnessPal and like it a lot so far but how do I track homemade foods?

For instance, I was planning to eat this after my workout today but not sure how to track or estimate it:

It's some boiled macaroni and 5 10% beef patties broiled.

Thanks in advance!

    Weight it Log it,

    Break down whats in the meat, Weight it log it

    Create a meal in MFP and label it i you have it regular

    Then break down in serving size, ie 1 kg mince, makes 15 pattys. so divide the total by 15 then use that as 1 serve. ect ect

    For that I'd just log the individual items. If you were making a recipe with several ingredients I'd use the recipe builder. It is the best way to log homemade food. I couldn't live without it.

    Not that you asked but seriously I'd throw some veggies in that bowl.

    Did you not create a recipe for these things?
