We made the Chicken and Eggplant Stir Fry Recipe that was on the December 22 blog. It says it is 280 calories, but when I imported the recipe, it says it is 639 calories. Anyone have this problem?

    Be careful. It is 639 calories, NOT 280!!! The inaccurate calorie count threw my day off completely. Somebody at my fitness pal should be checking the recipes they post!

    I completely fail to see how it could possibly be 639 calories, looking at the ingredients. Instead, check each of the ingredients in the imported recipe - cloves of garlic have been coming up at 800 calories for 2 recently.

    Yup @h54zweig and @robinzweig - look at the ingredients once you load it into the recipe builder. 3 cloves of garlic is being listed at 1341 calories. It's a glitch. Replace that ingredient with another garlic entry and you'll be fine.

    Thanks. I hope MFP fixes it. Yesterday was my first day and that really bummed me out. The garlic chicken and eggplant tasted really good though.
