- We’ll upload the recipe name and ingredients. Each ingredient displays what your recipe called for above the ingredient we found. Look over the details and make any adjustments you’d like. Tap an ingredient to adjust the serving size or swap it for a different ingredient.
- If we we weren't able to find a match for an ingredient or serving size we’ll flag the item to bring it to your attention. You must resolve these items before you can save your recipe. Replace the item or adjust the serving size by tapping on the ingredient in the list. Or delete the item by tapping the x to the right of the ingredient.
