I cannot stand MFPs recipe builder. What am I doing wrong? Is there a better one out there?
When on WW I enjoyed theirs because I could edit it at anytime, look up how much of each ingredient, add directions, and so much more. I so wish I could keep using that, but it doesn't keep track of anything but the pts.
So what is everyone using?

You can edit MFP's but only on the computer. It's way annoying but I usually just start over then next time online I delete the one I goofed up. It just has all the nutrients & not all the others do.0

I agree, it's not a great tool. You can edit it, but you can't edit amounts of ingredients or add from most used ingredients or foods or from my foods.
I found it too cumbersome to be of use.0 -
so if your not using it, what are you all using?0

I must be in the minority. I love the recipe builder - use it all the time and find it totally easy to use! Of course I don't cook a lot either - so maybe I don't need it to be super fancy as much as someone who cooks from scratch a lot.0
