Adding Non Recipes To A Meal Plan

Reply Contact

If I want to add lets say bread and butter to a meal plan I have to create a false recipe with just a title to include it in the plan... a feature allowing you to add items without them being a recipe would be great.

Yes, that's right -- we're looking into that for the next major release, among many other things. One other way that people have done this is to use the Notes field, but admittedly that applies to the entire day.

See our previous post -- in your specific case, you'll be getting a free upgrade due to all the support, suggestions and help you gave us in our early months. So you can ask for something else from your husband Geeked

This seems to be a very old post, is this still not able to be achieved with the latest software?

We are constantly improving the software and website (and iPhone app, and API, etc.) but no, this particular feature is not yet available. For now, you can add notes to dates and those are printed with the mealplan, or you can create individual placeholder recipes (which are side dishes or non-recipes) and store those in separate boxes.
