Recipe question

Options
I have this fab recipe from a cook book. It seems pretty healty but the thing is that I don't have the info I need to input it in for my day food intake. What should I do? Should I enter all the ingerdients one at a time? I don't have a clue one what to do with it. Well am off to cook yummy stir fry.

    Under the food tab, choose recipes and input it as your own recipe. Just put in all the info you can.

    MFP has a calculator for that, actually. Recipe Calculator under the TOOLS tab.

    I usually add the recipe under the Recipe choice and add each ingredient one by one either by scanning it or looking it up on MFP. just follow the label on the item you are adding. Then when i add it to my daily meal intake it shows the total cals. I have had to add items separate before also. Hope this helps. :smile:
