I've been trying to figure out how to make a food entry for a meal I prepare for my family.
It's not the healthiest but if I choose to eat it, I need to make an entry.
It's kind of like a soup or hearty stew & I make it in an 8 or 12 quart stock pot.
The serving size would be 1 cup of the stew along with 1/2 cup of cooked rice.
There are many ingredients some of which I would have to search online for
nutritional information (bulk veggies).

I have created my own "my food" entries before but as I said, this has many ingredients.
How would I go about this? :ohwell:

    when you go into food there's a spot for recipes... use it

    Find the ingredients that you're using, add the amount of each one.... When complete tell it how many servings, like if your pot gives you 6 bowls of soup thats 6 servings. The program will do the nutritional calculation for you "for the pot" at least total calories divided by portions.

    Awesome!!!!! I was hoping the recipe section would calculate it.
    That makes it so much easier.
    Thank you!!
