Can food as one instead of ingredients?

If I make Power Balls, using oats, coconut, peanut butter and 10 other ingredients, can I make all the ingredients link to show up as "Power balls"?  I don't want to try and remember all the ingredients every time I eat one! 

 

A similar example would be Greek chicken--we often eat 2 chicken thighs, 2 chopped tomatoes, onion, fresh mushrooms and greek olives.  I would like to just pick "Greek chicken" and not have to list all the veggies I add into it.  

 

Thoughts?  I don't see this in "Custom food".  Thanks!

Welcome to the forums!

 

On the Dashboard Click on the meal tab and you will see Create a meal. Click on that and add your ingredients.  Once done save it. I usually use my initials to save them as its easier to find.

 

Sometimes it hard find the right ingredient  with the right calories. So I often used this to create the recipe and get the NI information and then add a custom food with all the information in it
