Select „Create”, and choose „Create a recipe manually”. Fill in „Recipe Name” and select „Create”. Fill in the „Ingredients” and „Instructions” parts. Select „Save”. A shopping list from a recipe You can put a recipe's ingredients on the shopping list in one go. Open the „Shopping Lists” page, select „Create”, and name the list in „New List”. Open the recipe, and in its menu choose „Add to List”. Choose the list, then select „Add to List”. In the shop, open the list on your phone and tick what is already in the basket. The shopping list for the week's menu Once you have planned the week, you can put the whole shopping together in one go. Open the „Meal Planner” page. In the menu, choose „Add All to List”, and choose the list. You can add a single day too: in the day's menu, choose „Add Day to List”. Invite a family member A family member registers with an invite link, and then sees the same recipes and lists. At the bottom of the menu on the left, under „Settings”, open the „User Settings” page. Select „Get Invite Link”. Next to the „Invite Link” field, select „Copy”, and send the link to the family member. They register through the link with their own name and password. Nobody can register without an invite; the box set it up that way. Frequently asked questions Why is the interface in English? Mealie follows your browser's language. For another language, at the bottom of the menu on the left, under „Settings”, select „Language”. A recipe did not come over from a web page. What do I do? Mealie cannot read every web page. In that case, type the recipe in by hand, as described above. A family member forgot their password. What do I do? On the „Admin Settings” page, open the „Users” part, then the family member. Select „Generate Password Reset Link”, and give them the link. Is there a phone app? You do not need a separate app: Mealie works well in the phone's browser, and you can put it on the home screen like an app. Where do I see whether backups are made? On the dashboard, on Mealie's „Data and backup” tab. Documentation Official documentation ↗
