Hi

Can anyone tell me is there a way I can copy a receipe I have already got. For example I have got a chilli receipe using turkey mince but I also want to do one using beef so I want to copy the receipe & just edit the turkey mince not all the other ingredients if that makes sense

    There is no easy way to copy an existing recipe to make minor changes.

    One option is to use your web browser, copy and paste the ingredients to a word processor, clean up the stray HTML code, then paste that ingredient list into the web version Recipe Builder and save it as a new Recipe.

    I use a two step process as another option. I create and save a My Meals, then import it using the Old Recipe Calculator available on the web version only. If I want to make a change, I go back to the saved My Meal, update that, then import the updated My Meal to the Old Recipe Calculator and save it as a new Recipe.

    Here are my instructions on how to do that...
