I cook a lot at home for my family and I need a tool where I can enter my quantities and it will calculate the calories based on the servings. I've googled and found some, but what are some good ones that you use? I just used one by SparkPeople and it seemed OK.

    I use the one here on the MFP site under recipes and then whenever I make the meal I just have to click on it and enter the serving size I had that day.

    measure your ingredients.

    Add it to the "recipes" portion of mfp.

    Make it however many servings. Add it to your diary.
