After creating a recipe, is there a way to edit after its been saved?

    To edit a recipe:

    In our iOS apps
    - In the Menu (or "More" page) tap "My Meals, Recipes & Foods" then "Recipes".
    - Tap on the recipe you'd like to edit, then tap "Edit Recipe"
    - Tap "✓" when you are finished.

    In our Android app
    - In the Menu tap "Recipes, Meals & Foods" then "Recipes".
    - Tap on the recipe you'd like to edit.
    - Tap the three dots on the top right and select Edit Recipe
    - Use the plus icon to add more ingredients
    - Click on an ingredient to change the number of servings or the serving size
    - Tap the "Edit" (pencil) icon, to delete and ingredient, change the name of the recipe, or the number of servings it yields.
    - Tap "✓" when you are finished.

    We hope this helps!

    This doesn’t remotely help. I’ve followed staff’s steps and still can’t seem to edit. Seems there should be something as simple as easy to see, in plain view button to access the recipe for editing.
    Fumbling with the app, searching for vain on the blog site for a fix, all while trying to meal prep for the week is frustrating.

    To clarify I have an iPhone, not Android.

    At the bottom of the app in the blue banner, click on the three dots that say "More", go to "My Meals, Recipes and Foods", under the "recipes" section find the recipe you want to edit, then click the white box on the right halfway down that says "Edit Recipe". Once in there you swipe left to remove and delete an ingredient, or click on it to change the amount/measurement, or click "Add Ingredient" to, well... add an ingredient.
