Does anyone know of a program where you can input the recipe ingredients and then # of servings and the program will tell you macronutrients per serving?

    I'm sorry but I'm missing something. Where in MFP can I enter all the ingredients for a recipe, tell it how many servings the recipe makes, and have it do all the macronutrient division for me on each serving? It would be WONDERFUL if it's here and I'm just overlooking the obvious.

    On the website - click on the FOOD tab at the top, then on Recipes in the 2nd line. From there you can click Enter New Recipe and enter all of the ingredients and # of servings to get cals/macros per serving. I believe in the app you have to go to More, then Edit Foods and Exercises, then My Recipes to do the same thing.
