2 No sugar added Fudgecicles
2 tablespoons Natural Peanut butter
divided into 8 mini muffin pan spots.

How much of the numbers need to be entered in the database for a serving size of one of these? (one mini muffin or cup)

Thanks

    2 divided by 8 is .25. You can do this on a calculator.

    Use the recipe tool - you can enter your ingredients and state "8 servings" and it will work out the numbers for you.

    Or just add all the calories up and divide by 8.

    Why not? Then it's in your recipe database for the next time you have it. Otherwise just log .25 servings of each like others have suggested.

    Why not? She's made 8 servings, so chances are she'll be eating it 8 times.

    But then, I make recipes just about every day, some with a long list of ingredients and some with only 2 or 3.

    That's odd - I have recipes that only have two ingredients... I can't imagine why it isn't letting you (unless it is one of those app v website issues?).

    In that case, add 0.25 of each item and save it as a meal if you want to use it again.
