Lean ground turkey taco meat: 1 tbsp olive oil 2 16 oz packages of lean ground turkey 1 can of plain black beans, drained 1 can of dark red kidney beans 1 can of diced tomatoes with…
Lactose Intolerant
Hello, for clarification, I am a high school student without a license, so I am not the one doing the shopping. Within the last year I've discovered that I am lactose intolerant, and I don't want to cut everything out entirely because I still enjoy it, but I want to lessen my intake. All of the recipes online have stuff I…
Add search capability to Recipe Discovery
The Recipe Discovery section really needs a search option. If I have a key ingredient in mind, then I shouldn't have to browse through a zillion pictures of recipes to find a match.
Recipe Feature Tweak
I would like to suggest the recipe feature offer alternatives for the total completed recipe. Currently, "servings" is the only option, so a recipe might make 4 servings, but there is no way to know what a "serving" is. Adding "oz, grams, etc" as an option when creating the recipe would make it easier to re-use recipes.…
Is the meal plan with recipes printable?
I would like to print out my myfitnesspal generated meal plan for the week with the recipes included. Is there a way to do that?

Chicken and Avocado Zucchini-Noodle Bowl - 340 Calories, 40g Protein - Serves 4
Chicken and Avocado Zucchini-Noodle Bowl Zucchini noodles — or zoodles — have become so popular that your grocery store probably sells them in the produce department. Plus, swapping zoodles for pasta noodles saves 200 calories and 40 grams of carbs per cup. For this recipe, either purchase them or make your own with a…
Search/Sort My Recipes
I have been a member for several years and have many recipes saved in my database. I would love to be able to sort them to make it easier to find a recipe, if I need to edit it or just to see if I've entered that recipe yet. This would save so much time, as now I have to go through all 12 pages of recipes, just to see if…

Improve the food search diary
many restaurants and food companies (at least in Canada) have their nutrition or at least their calories per serving publicly available, MFP should be able to tap into that to populate the food diary ALSO, if someone is creating a new food and it doesn’t have any macro information, that should just be in their own personal…
How can I search for the macros for a recipe?
Is thereIs there any where I can search for recipes on the app or enter a recipe and get the macros on it?
Hi 👋
Hi, It’s been a while since I have been here, long time ago, I was also on SparkPeople also along time ago and I was surprised the site ended. Great recipes and nice people on SparkPeople. I am hoping to find new healthy recipes here. Weight Watchers was working and then they changed the plan and I just flat out plateaued.…
Recipes - Add temp and cooking time to as fields for saved recipes
I’m a premium member and would love to be able to add the temperature and cooking time to my saved recipes. It would be a great time saver as I’d no longer have to go to the original recipe site (book, online, etc) to get that info.
Newbie Here
I am just trying to learn all I can to get the most use out of the app! I am super serious to release all this extra weight. I am 64 and having hip and knee issues (osteoarthritis) and need surgery but I want to lose weight and feel better and get the weight off of my knees for better recovery.
Check the accuracy of ingredients or publicly available recipes and meals
Too many items clearly do not have all the information (macros) are they are widely inaccurate (sometimes the info for 100g is listed as for 1g for example) Please could you weed out your system from all the junk and maybe have someone check recipes and meals made public before they go in the wild?

Best resource for customized recipes: ChatGPT
AI has been a game changer for me on my wellness journey. I have used it to create gluten-free vegetarian recipes, high-protein recipes, and low-calorie snacks. It's an amazing tool for dietary restrictions—my sister uses it for her son that has a special diet. One of my favorite things about using it is that I can tell it…
Good recipe?
I saw this on YouTube and logged it. Im wondering if it is a good recipe for fat loss and muscle gain it’s a Greek yogurt recipe with cocoa powder, flour, a few chocolate chips, and milk.
Asian-Inspired Recipes
Does anyone have any recommendations for macro-friendly Asian-inspired recipes? It can be YouTube/Instagram creators, cookbooks, blogs, anything. I prefer Pacific Island foods, like from Japan, Polynesia, Philippines, and Guam.
Copy and Save meals feature are missing!
I am very disapointed that I cannot save a meal as a recipe for futher use from the app I cannot take a previous meal to today; it is possible to take Yesterday's meal but nothing else. Turns out we CAN DO IT FROM THE WEBSITE, but those are basic features missing from the mobile app. Tracking meals and macro shouldn't be a…
Slow Cooker Chicken and Barley Soup - 250 Calories, 32g Protein - Serves 4
Simple is good, especially when you can put all the ingredients for a comforting chicken soup in a slow cooker, shred the chicken, and transfer the soup to glass containers — you can even pack some for lunch. Pearled barley is rich in beta-glucans, a special kind of starch that helps reduce cholesterol, and barley has been…

Our zesty kale salad uses sweet orange juice and a touch of vinegar to brighten the kale and relax it even further. For a…
Recipe idea
I filled warmed Trader Joe’s corn tortillas with heated canned rinsed black beans and chopped 1/4 tomato, cabbage and carrots. I forgot the frozen corn but there was no more room left anyways for my tacos! I ate three tacos.
Ice Cream/Frozen Yogurt/Gelato/Sorbet Recipe Collection
Let's start a collection of recipes! I now have a new kitchen gadget (Ninja Creami) that makes various frozen desserts. I'll share what I come up with, and hope others will chime in with recipes they have made and tested. All recipes welcome (regular/lite/low-cal/high protein/etc.).
Recipes needs work!
The remove button on the recipe's ingredient list doesn't work. You have to clear the recipe and start over. I'm using it on Chrome on a laptop. I haven't used Finess Pal in almost 5 years. It's disappointing that you've put no work into that section. I tried to build a recipe using the app, another FAIL. I had to adjust…
Chicken and Broccoli Alfredo - 365 Calories, 30g Protein - Serves 5
Chicken and Broccoli Alfredo This healthy take on classic chicken alfredo from Eat The Gains uses protein-rich cashews in lieu of the traditional cream for a silky, better-for-you sauce.
