Meal Planner with access to 'my meals'
The meal plans are currently limited to the MyFitnessPal recipes. Access to a blank meal planner that we can then pull our own recipes, along with the MF recipes, into would make weekly meal planning much easier and avoid having to use other apps or spreadsheets.

Can't edit and save recipes
For at least a couple of weeks I have been unable to edit and save recipes. I've sent this issue to MFP twice and have had no response or change. Has anyone else had this issue, or found a work around on this. I'm finding this quite challenging when I'm trying to track all my calories.

Why are my list of recipes being limited to just 20?

Recipe Serving Size Yieldings
Hello, I was wondering if you could tell us exactly how many cups, ounces, etc. are in a serving for each recipe. For example, instead of just saying “serves 4” can you break it down to “each serving yields 1 cup.” I need to know exactly how much of something to eat. TIA!

Fave Fish and Chicken Recipes?
I’m trying to keep to chicken and fish, but I feel like it always tastes the same everytime I make it! I think I’m just not that creative 😂 I usually prefer salmon as my choice of fish, but I eat just about any of it!

Food and quantity matching for recipe creation or imports wildly off
I use the recipe import and creation function regularly. And every time I input ingredients there are many - and many very silly - matching errors. This means every time i have to not just modify the quantity or units, but almost always I need to search and reselect the ingredient. Here are some examples - both of these…

I would like to know your…

Copy a recipe
I have a few recipes that I will make with just one variation. For example I make Eggroll in a Bowl monthly. Sometimes I use ground pork, sometimes ground chicken.
