Have just started using MFP but wondering how best to add home cooked food as opposed to ready made things in their database. Do I really have to input all ingredients or is there another way?

You can add your own recipes but you do have to add all your ingredients. It is a bit time consuming But once you've done it once it saves it. I like it cos I do a lot of stuff in the slow cooker and I have all my recipes saved now

Thanks ladies!

I second the barcode scanner, makes adding ingredients so much easier.
