This is really cool! Would be nice if there was some link to the recipe that the shopping list is based on?

Good call. I've added a link to the recipe.
Where are you fetching the recipes from?
Some of the starter recipes are from my own stock, and a couple of them were provided by chat GPT. (You can probably tell that some of them are not great looking recipes)

Ideally, I’d like to have a roster of a couple hundred quality meals, and then work on a bit of a recommendation engine. (Ex: here’s a suggested meal plan, based on your preferences)

But the site really hits its stride when it’s working with your recipes.. so I’d like to make the process of adding your own meals to the site as painless as possible as well. The current plan is something like “upload a photo” or “upload a screenshot” (because importing from a url turns out to be a web-app-firewall debacle.)

Nice!
