QuickBites

QuickBites are grocery bundles — a title plus a flat list of ingredients. They’re for things that aren’t full recipes: snacks, breakfast staples, pantry restocks, meal-prep items.

How they appear on the Menu page

QuickBites appear in an indented Quick Bites zone beneath each category’s recipes. Check or uncheck them just like recipes.

Each zone has a small edit button that opens the QuickBites editor focused on that category. There’s also an Edit QuickBites button in the page header that opens all categories at once.

Format

QuickBites are written in a simple text format, grouped by category:

## Snacks
- Apples and Honey: Apples, Honey
- Crackers and Cheese: Ritz crackers, Cheddar

## Breakfast
- Cereal and Milk: Rolled oats, Milk
- Toast and Butter: Bread, Butter

Each entry is - Title: Ingredient, Ingredient, .... For a single-ingredient bundle, you can use - Title without a colon:

## Produce
- Bananas

Editing QuickBites

Click Edit QuickBites in the page header, or click the edit button next to any category’s Quick Bites zone. The editor opens with two modes:

• Plaintext: edit the text format directly
• Graphical: a card-based form for each category

Switch between modes at any time — the editor converts back and forth.

On the grocery list

When a QuickBite is selected, its ingredients appear on the Groceries page and go through the same inventory check process as recipe ingredients.
