Anyone having trouble inputting recipes?

When I add ingredients in manually it tries to match, but is wrong and the option to choose other ingredients is gone

Can you try the old recipe builder? I actually started logging my recipes into Fatsecret
Pros: Let you add steps and notes
Isn't as much of a pain to edit
Grams are included in almost every food.
Its free to use like MFP
Cons: Has to be added as a new food on MFP, adding another step
The database is smaller, you might have to manually add a food1 -
The worthlessness of the recipe builder here is what drove me to begin logging my food (and recipes) elsewhere, actually. I cook minimum 2 meals/day from scratch and they really broke the heck out of the builder ages ago and STILL haven't bothered to fix it from what I can tell.0
