Is there a recipe or nutritional database?

    If I'm understanding your question correctly, yes?

    The MFP food database that you use to log food in your diary has nutrient data in it.

    There isn't exactly a recipe database, but the MFP blog has lots of recipes, there's a recipe discovery function in the phone/tablet version of MFP, and there's also a recipe builder where you can type in your recipe ingredients, or import a recipe's ingredients from a website (including many websites outside MFP).

    But maybe I'm misunderstanding your question.

    Thank you for responding. I didn't realize that the recipes in the MFP app were not in the browser version of MFP. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

    Only the "Recipe Discovery" is phone/tablet only. The recipe blog is available through web MFP, and the Recipe Builder is in web MFP as well.
