Own menus
Create reusable meals from foods you eat regularly.
What this module does
Own Menu combines several foods and their portions into one saved meal. The saved menu can later be reused instead of entering the same foods again.
When to use it
Use it for breakfasts, lunches, dinners or other meals you eat regularly.
