Would it be possible to implement a safe feature or something like that, to save recipes or meals for the future? I tend to eat the same thing for breakfast every day, for instance, or cook a lot of something and eat it for three or four meals that week.

Save feature, not safe.

Everything you enter is saved for the future, and will be suggested when you start typing part of the name. Or maybe I've misunderstood your question.

I will second this - it's what I came here to ask!

So for example I made a pan of lasagna, I enter into a 'recipe form' a new entry of: box lasagna noodles, 16oz ricotta, 2 eggs, jar spaghetti sauce, 4 Italian sausage etc. Then I cut that pan into 6 servings.

So tomorrow for dinner I want to log 'c lasagna' 1 serving, or .5 serving, etc. Now I have 1 thing to log rather than a big list of estimations of what was in that 1 serving of lasagna.

Ideally there would be a way to save these so even if its 6mo before I make lasagna again, I can quickly log my recipe rather than either listing ingredients or approximating a calorie log with someone else's entry.

I make a "GF breakfast bread" that has about 20 ingredients.....!

I love the app - super simple, NO ADS, no creepy tracking,etc.

Thank you VERY much!

You can add up your ingredients by using the "combine" feature: Enter all your ingredients in their correct amounts into today's log, then select them all and tap the combine button (intended to look like a pot with plus symbols). You can then give the combination a name, and adjust the portion size. Tapping the done button will replace your selected entries with this combined one. If you've named it "lasagna" this will be suggested next time you start typing "lasagna" just like everything else you enter.

The combine feature is great.
