    Morrisons, uk? Is there some nutritional info on their website? If not you'll have to do the best guess you can.

    If the restaurant doesn't publish their nutrition information, I just use a similar item from another restaurant. Usually information from the big chain restaurants is in the database.

    If you can't find nutrition info there or on their site, try other supermarkets to see if similar items have such info.

    Then, if it's a common meal you have, add them and save it as "Morrison's Breakfast" meal or whatever.

    If it's a one-off meal, you may find it easier to do what I do with such things. I have private food entries for Generic Stuff 20% and Generic Stuff 4%, which are 100 calories each with X% calories from protein. So if a meal is 350 calories, add 3.5 of Generic Stuff for the day. (I don't concern myself with carb or fat macros, just calories and protein).
