Shopping List

Consolidate ingredients from multiple recipes into one checkable list.

Add recipes to the list

From a recipe’s menu (or a card’s right-click menu), toggle “Add to shopping list” — or add every recipe in a collection at once from the collection page.

Adjust servings, if needed

Each added recipe gets its own servings stepper on the Shopping List page, scaling that recipe’s ingredients the same way the recipe detail view does.

Shop, checking things off as you go

Check off items as you pick them up. Print the list, or clear it once the trip’s done.

How ingredients are combined

There’s one shopping list per profile — not multiple named lists. When two recipes call for the same ingredient, Recipery tries to merge them into a single line:

  • Ingredients are grouped by name (case-insensitive exact match — “onion” and “green onion” stay separate lines)
  • Quantities in the same unit are summed directly (“2 cups flour” + “1 cup flour” → “3 cups flour”)
  • Quantities in different units are summed too, when both convert to grams via the same density table used for ingredient gram weights — otherwise they’re kept as separate amounts on the same line rather than guessed at
  • Non-numeric quantities (“a pinch”) are preserved as-is

What’s not included

The shopping list is deliberately excluded from data exports — it’s a working list for your next grocery run, not part of the library itself.
