Did they remove the ability to SEARCH recipes?

Recipe discovery is useless... I don't want to scroll through their list, I need to be able to search for what I'm looking for.

You can search. But if you find it useless, I suggest don't use it.

Where are you finding this recipe search bar? It does not come up anywhere for me, either in the app (android) or on the website.

I just found this, having asked the question in one of these forums, can't remember which. Purely by accident but not in the app, on my laptop. I've bookmarked it, very useful.

As a new user I found the recipes very difficult to locate and didn't even think to look under blog!

The recipes in the blog are a minor part of MFP. The main purpose is tracking fitness, calories eaten, and calories expended. There are lots of resources for recipes. I've only ever looked at them once aside from doing it to remember how to tell people where they are. I'm not much of a fan of the recipes there. I like to look at a half dozen recipes for something I'm thinking about making, and then create something of my own based on personal tastes. No recipes have enough garlic....
