MFP recipe setting

I'm new here. I'm wondering if the MFP "my recipe" section is accurate. I've been scanning every ingredient I add to my recipes and hope I'm not off on the calories. I thought this would also be a good way to adapt a recipe, if it calls for an ingredient I could substitute it and get the updated calorie count.

    It can be accurate but be aware that there are some entries that are inputted incorrectly so you have to watch close. As you use the database more it gets easier to spot the inaccuracies.

    Thanks! I've ended up re-entering every recipe for ever meal because they change from time to time.
