I’ve been weighing my cereal and milk separately and then creating the recipe and putting in the amount of milk and cereal there however when I log it in using that recipe it saves but without the quantities so it doesn’t add it correctly. Would anyone know how to fix it that would be great new to tracking

    You could just entered them separately into your food log. I only use recipes for food meal prep. When I cook for one meal I just list the items separately in the food log. I think this will save you a step.

    I haven't seen that happen, so I don't know.

    One option - one I'd personally like better for cereal plus milk - would be to save it as a Meal instead of a recipe. When you save a meal, and log it later, your daily diary will show each ingredient as a line-item, so if you happen to eat a bit more/less cereal or milk one day, all you have to do is change the amount right on your diary page.
