in Feature Suggestions and Ideas
It takes way too much time to screenshot ingredients lists for recipes and collate the correct quantities before going shopping. Please consider this feature or a collaboration with an App like Paprika.

    Totally agree. Need meal plans that match your goals and shopping list for the meal plan.

    I'd love this! I used to use allrecipes. You could just put recipes for the week in and then print out your list. Now I use a master list w/ obsidian app, on my phone, that I can just check off and unchecked when I need to restock.

    I love this idea, and it's one I'm seeing requested more often. Know that I've passed this along to our internal team!

    This feature has existed for at least a decade in Spark People, and being honest it was only in the last few years that I felt like MFP useability had surpassed Spark, and I made the switch. However MFP is still lacking features that Spark has had all along - for free. Please catch up and add Shopping list - but this is also part of a bigger paradigm shift that MFP needs to add functionality for Future My Planning not just the few days ahead. You've added some features in this realm but not enough.

    Another great app that provides this is PlanToEat. You might see if you can collaborate with them if Paprika doesn't work out.
