Sharing recipes?

How can I share the recipes I input so that my husband can easily access them? Every night we both have to enter every single ingredient that goes into our meals when they're shared meals. It's sort of silly. Thanks!

Make each Diary set to friends view and then he should be able to view your Diary and copy your meal to his own. I do this with my husband, although I usually have to delete the drink, since he drinks something different and it copies the entire meal over. Hope this helps...

How do view someone else's diary and copy it to your own? I wish they would just put a share button on each recipe and allow us to share them with friends.

You can not share recipes directly with another user, and another user will not find your recipes through a search. Your recipes will be displayed in the search results only when you perform a search.

There is a work around.
User1 creates a Recipe and logs it to a Meal.
User2 opens User1's Diary (shared with public, friends only, or locked with a key)
User2 clicks Quick Tools and copies User1's Meal to his/her Diary.
