I need help figuring out how to convert/input my recipes
to get the nutritional values, and number of servings? I can fill in the blanks, but not sure what blanks to fill in and how to figure number of servings. Can anybody help me with this?
Thanks,
Karen

I add everything up in the food diary in a single meal, then use the totals to add the recipe as a private entry in the food database.

Then if the recipe makes 4 portions I add it in my diary as 0.25.
