    Hi, I found this recipe and would like to put it in my menu planner.
    http://www.trimdownclub.com/recipe/seasoned-potatoes/
    Is this possible and how do I have to do it.
    Thank you for any tips.

    Hi Christine,
    It looks like you would do best using the full Personal Menu Planner application, which is full of tasty recipes.
    For recipes that don’t appear in the Personal Menu Planner, simply find a Menu Planner recipe or food that is most similar to what you want—either by comparing exchanges or noting the various types of ingredients—and select it as a place-saver for the system. When it comes time to prepare your meal, make the swap. This can also work with your own personal recipes.
    For example, if you are interested in Cheap and Flexible Lentil Stew, one of our newer additions, note that it yields 2 carb + 2 protein exchanges per serving, the same as for Tomato Broccoli Cheesy Potato Bake, which appears in the Menu Planner lists.
    In another example, if you have a homemade chicken-vegetable soup you’d like to make, chances are it fits with the combination found in our Chicken Soup for the Gods—even if it isn’t a perfect match, it is more than likely sufficient.
    If you wish to incorporate a more unusual recipe, such as our Paleo Nut Stuffing, note that unless you have a specific medical condition, you can swap carbs for proteins (1 carb for 1 protein exchange) or fats (1 carb for 2 fat exchanges).
    Best 🙂

    Hi
    Thank you for your reply. What do you mean with “select it as a place-saver for the system.”

    Hi, Christine. Basically, any place you have potato in your menu, you can slip this in – in the same measure, of course (1/2 cup = 1/2 cup). Similarly for other recipes.
