how do I get this recipe added to my favorites list?
Hi, Cathy. Our system is not yet set up for something like that, but you can still use the exchanges to fit it into your menu. Compare those at the end of the recipe to those allotted to you for meals – you can see the latter by clicking on the “Exchange mode” icon in the toolbar above your menu. The match doesn’t have to be perfect.
It looks good and hopefully we can follow the plan.
