    If you go into the recipes tab, you can click on the individual recipe. From there you can click "edit recipe" to add/remove ingredients. If you've already logged the recipe, it won't be updated though so make sure you remove it and then re-log it.

    Cannot find edit option anywhere - selected food/add food/recipes tab/myrecipe... no edit option. Did not hear back from support -it’s been about a week since trying to contact them. iOS 12 with all app updates applied.

    I typed out an answer then realised I exclusively use MFP on my phone so the PC version may be entirely different. If you’re using a PC this might not make any sense, but on the off chance you’re using the phone I’ll retype!

    At the very bottom right when in the diary is an icon ‘more’ that opens up to a list of features, including the ‘community’ link that you use to get to the forums. In that list is ‘Recipes, Meals, Foods’ (from memory, the last may be wrong). Accessing your recipes that way rather than through the diary/food entry should offer an edit option.

    I had the same issue fairly recently because I swear you used to be able to edit directly from the diary access!

    THANK YOU! I never would have found that. I’m pretty sure it was accessible by entering via the diary before too.
