Recipe Nutrition Calculators That Are Better Than MFP?

I love MFP and I love tracking my foods. It has helped me lose weight and be more fit and healthy, and I look forward to using this tool for a long time as I work on achieving my goals.

But calculating recipes using the MFP recipe tool is a pain. Generic, whole food ingredients are tricky to search for in the database, finding the right measurement is tough, and once an ingredient is entered you can't change the amount. There are lots of additional clicks and it's slow and cumbersome.

I'm a foodie and cook something new probably 4-6 nights per week, so this is a crucial feature of my planning that is slowing me down and making it harder to properly track.

Does anyone know of a non-MFP recipe nutrition calculator that is easier to use and reliable? I'm happy to use a website, an app, whatever. I'm also happy to pay a reasonable amount for it. Then I can just take the numbers and plug them into MFP.

Suggestions welcome and thanks a lot in advance!
