Hi everyone! I need help entering my recipes! So I downloaded the recipe into mfp from the website, but then it doesn't divide the nutrition into the serving sizes when I enter it into my diary. What am I doing wrong?

    I wish I could help you but I always create my own recipe by manually entering all the ingredients that I will be using. I never downloaded recipes from any website. I read that some members were having problems with that feature. I hope that somebody offers some ideas and solutions.

    Have you tried editing the recipe and making sure that the number of servings entered is what it's supposed to be? It sounds like it was created with number of servings = 1.

    Did you scroll all the way down to where Servings let you enter the number of servings for the recipe?

    I've had problems importing recipes correctly so can't be much help. I thought that the nutritional data came from MFP once it matched the ingredients, because mine never have anywhere matched the calories that the recipe shows online.
