Fitbit recipes

Would be a great feature if Fitbit releases recipes and that these recipes we were in the app so if you make a meal, you can search the name of the meal when tracking food to more accurately track what you're eating. Ie if I made a chicken risotto for tea, typed it in to track food and it had "chicken risotto Fitbit". All ingredients ect are automatically updated instead of having to log individual ingredient

Many people are turning to online meal plans such as Factor 75 (among many).  It would be great if these meals were in the food database.  I know I can quick add calories, but then all other nutrients are absent.  Another alternative would be to allow quick add NUTRIENTS, not just the calories.

I love the recipes FitBit provide in their additional resources but there doesn’t appear to be a simple way to keep track of the ones you like. I’d like to be able to access the full bank of FitBit recipes in one location and also be able to access a list of favourites that I’ve ‘hearted’ when I’ve come across them. Thanks for considering my suggestion!

I think there should be a dedicated section of the app for healthy recipes. You all have already done the hard work of collecting the recipes and including them in some of the guided program, but you can only access them there. I think this would really round out the service as eating healthy is incredibly important to staying healthy. Maybe they could be organized in this section by the same categories that are in the logging your food section: breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks. This recipes should also be printable. Also, the app could send you notifications with suggested recipes to make.
