I make a lot of my own snacks at home and I have a granola bar recipe that I'm trying to figure out how to get in here w/o it calculating it as me eating the whole recipe. It makes 12 bars. Can someone help me with this?

    Best way is to use the Recipe Builder function and enter the amount of servings as 12. That way, the app will do the calculation for you.

    Then when you eat one of your bars you can access the recipe and enter one serving.

    You can also set the serving size to 1 gram and enter the number of servings as the finished weight of the dish in grams. Then just weigh what you eat and enter that as the number of servings.

    (I think I got that right. It's been a while since I actually bothered to create a recipe.)
