Create and log recipes

In Recipes, tap Create and describe the recipe or build it by hand, or turn on Also save as recipe when you log a meal. Log it later by servings.

Open Recipes from the Nutrition menu and tap Create. Describe the recipe and let AI build it, or tap Create manually and enter it yourself. Once saved, a recipe logs with its own numbers and no AI.

Steps

  1. On the Nutrition tab, open the menu at the top right and tap Recipes.
  2. Tap Create to open New Recipe.
  3. Under Describe your recipe, type it, for example “overnight oats with berries”, and tap the sparkle button.
  4. Or tap Create manually and add the name, servings and ingredients yourself.
  5. Check the ingredients, set Suitable for and an optional Cover photo, then tap Save.
  6. To log it, tap the recipe and choose Log Meal.
  7. Choose the meal type and the number of servings, then tap Log meal.

New Recipe: Describe your recipe with a text field, Speak instead, three examples, and Create manually below

Save a meal you just logged

On the Meal Preview, turn on Also save as recipe, type a Recipe Name, and tap Save Meal & Recipe. A photo meal keeps its photo as the cover.

Archive or delete

Tap a recipe and choose Archive. The eye icon next to the search field shows archived recipes; Restore brings one back.

What you see

If a new recipe looks like one you have, choose Update existing or Save as new. A saved recipe’s ingredients are added to My Ingredients.

Limits

Describing a recipe uses one text analysis: 15 per 30-day cycle on Free, 200 on Pro. Manual recipes and logging a recipe are free.

If it does not work

  • “This recipe has no ingredients to log.” Edit the recipe and add at least one ingredient.
  • “AI needs internet. Log manually.” Use Create manually.
