Edit Recipes

Hi Just started on Tuesday so working my way round the app. I’ve logged a recipe into the app so I can just click on it if I have that meal again, but how do you edit them without writing it all out again
Thanks

    Click on "Edit Recipe."

    Also, after you click on "Edit Recipe" - if on the web version of MFP as mtaratoot shows - there's a sneaky bit. You won't see the options for editing individual recipe ingredient items until you hover your cursor in the right spot (the cursor doesn't show in this screen grab, but it was within the circled area):

    If you're using the phone/tablet app version of MFP, in the "More" menu, you'd pick "Recipes, Meals and Foods", then the recipes tab, then click on the recipe you want to change. In the upper right is a 3-dots thingie. Click there to see "Edit Recipe", then click that. You'll get a view of the recipe like this:

    There, you can click in the box next to an item to get an opportunity to delete that item, click the plus sign at upper right to add an item, or click on the item to edit the amount similarly to how you do it in your food diary.
