Eating

24 calories is way off track. Just the tortilla by itself is at least 100 calories. Plug in all of your ingredients into recipe builder. If you're making 6, then the serving size is 6.

Did you enter the right quantities in the recipe builder? Did you choose entries with accurate calorie counts? You could log the individual ingredients into the main diary, divide the total amount by the number of servings and then quick add the appropriate calories.

You can "earn" more calories for food by working out and logging it.

This. Also, sometimes the recipe builder can be wonky and add a totally different ingredient instead of the one you entered. Make sure you entered the right amount of servings, too. Sometimes when I add a recipe from a website, it can pick up a random number instead of the number of servings. If you work out to earn extra calories, aim to eat back around 50% as the mfp exercise database is off.

If you do go over, don't sweat it. It's just one day.

When i add an ingredient on the serving i put how many im using??

the total servings that you're using in the entire recipe

Use the USDA database of food. Copy and paste from that into the recipe builder. Remove the commas in the recipe builder. Then tell the recipe builder to match the foods. That's a pain to do but it does work. Keep at it because a cheese enchilada ought to be around 300 calories.
