Creating recipes question

I use a recipe for a low carb baking mix that I make myself. Is there a way to use that recipe when creating other recipes that use the baking mix as an ingredient? TIA!

    I don’t think there is, unfortunately, as this question or similar ones come up fairly often. Seems like it might be something that should be possible.

    I believe there’s a suggestions forum somewhere, where you could suggest the additional functionality to the developers, if you fancy giving that a try!

    You can, but it's convoluted. Create the recipe for your baking mix in MFP. Copy the nutritional information. Then go to my foods and create it as a food. Name it VipW Baking Mix or something. Then you can use that as an ingredient in other recipes.
