How to Adjust Recipe Serving Sizes and Ingredient Amounts

Recipes have two serving controls: one for what you eat and log, one for the ingredient amounts you cook.

Recipes in the OSX app have two serving controls. One controls the amount you want to eat and log, while the other controls the ingredient quantities used to prepare the recipe.

Adjust the serving size you want to eat and log

At the top of the recipe, choose the number of servings you want to eat. The calories and macros shown for the recipe will adjust based on the serving size you select.

Adjust the ingredient amounts for cooking

If you’re preparing the recipe, scroll down to the Ingredients section.

Select the number of servings you want to make. The ingredient quantities will update automatically so you know how much of each ingredient to use.

Important: The serving size at the top and the serving size in the Ingredients section are separate. If you want the ingredient quantities to match the amount you plan to prepare, make sure you select the correct number of servings in the Ingredients section too.
