Mealie

Mealie is an open source, self-hosted recipe manager. It stores your recipes, plans your meals and builds shopping lists from the ingredients you need.

Mealie lets you import a recipe from a web address, paste structured data, or type a recipe in by hand. Recipes can be organized into a meal plan on a calendar, with breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks. Shopping lists can be filled with items or with every ingredient from a recipe, and labels keep them tidy. Groups and households let people share recipes while keeping their own meal plans.

• Import recipes from supported websites
• Calendar meal planner with snacks and meals
• Shopping lists built from recipe ingredients
• Recipe editor with Markdown support
• Backups and restores from the admin page

Families and home cooks who want their recipes in one place and a simple way to plan the week. Households that share cooking tasks will find the shopping lists useful.

Mealie is open source under the AGPL-3.0 license and free to self-host. The project is built with Vue.js and FastAPI and runs in Docker. SQLite works for most home setups, while PostgreSQL suits larger or busier installs. A hosted option is sold as a separate product.
