Recipe macro calculator with editable ingredients

How to use it

1. Open Recipes and create a recipe, or open an existing recipe’s ingredient controls.
2. Add or swap ingredients using the food library. Check the brand and reference serving on packaged foods.
3. Enter the amount of each ingredient and the number of portions the batch makes.
4. Review the calculated totals and per-serving nutrition. Customise ingredients before adding the recipe to a meal plan if this batch differs.

Use the brand in your kitchen

Two whey powders or sauces can have different nutrition even when their names sound similar. Choose the food record that matches your packet, or create a reviewed record from the label. The ingredient picker includes barcode, label-photo and manual-food options, so you can add a missing food without abandoning the recipe and rebuilding it later.

Change the batch without changing your routine

If this week’s chicken packet is 1.35 kg and next week’s is 1.42 kg, enter 1350 g or 1420 g for the appropriate batch. Check the food’s preparation state too: a raw ingredient’s reference values should be paired with a raw amount. Cooking changes water content, so a cooked weight should not silently replace a raw ingredient amount.

Separate batch totals from a serving

A recipe’s total nutrition is the sum of its ingredient amounts. Per-serving nutrition then depends on how many portions the recipe makes. Dividing a batch into four equal portions is different from dividing it into five. Check that your serving count reflects how you actually divide the food, and use the portion controls when logging more or less than one serving.

Keep shared recipes and meal changes clear

Customising a shared recipe saves a personal copy instead of overwriting the original for other people. Changes made for a particular meal leave the source recipe intact. That means you can make your own brand swap, add an ingredient or adjust this batch without unexpectedly changing someone else’s plan. Recheck the final quantities and nutrition before saving.
