Ingredients that you do not already have in your pantry will automatically be added to your shopping list. Note: Ingredients for meals will populate your shopping list once the planned date is within the next three days. This prevents you from buying ingredients too early.
⚠️ A warning indicator will show days that have no meals planned. ✅ A green check mark will display on the meals that you already have the ingredients for (Instant Gratification).
Tip: Experiment with different views to see what works best for you.
