Ghee for Mealie: Recipes

Cook from your Mealie kitchen. Recipes, meal plans, shopping lists, and Cook Mode - designed around the way you actually cook.

Requires a self-hosted Mealie server (v2.0+).

COOK MODE
Step-by-step recipe sessions for the kitchen, not the desk. Larger text, ingredient checklists, screen stays awake, and your progress saves automatically - pick up wherever you left off.

RECIPES
• Browse, search, sort, and filter your full Mealie collection
• Save recipes for offline access - your kitchen doesn't pause when your Wi-Fi does
• Create, edit, and delete recipes in the app, with photo upload
• Edit ingredients with structured quantity, food, unit, and label fields - or create new ones inline
• Import any recipe by URL - your Mealie server scrapes the page
• Scale ingredients up or down by serving size
• Keep screen awake on any recipe - not just Cook Mode
• Nutrition info with macro summary
• Recipe step images render inline; tap for fullscreen
• Grid or list view, your choice
• Favorite, rate, and tag - synced live with Mealie
• Log "I made this today" to the recipe's Mealie timeline, by hand or automatically when you finish Cook Mode

MEAL PLANNING
• Plan by day or week
• Group the week by day or by meal type - matching your Mealie web layout
• Week starts on your Mealie server's first day of the week
• Add planned meals straight to your shopping list - one day or the whole week
• Filter meal types to focus on what matters right now
• Long-press any meal for quick actions
• Breakfast, lunch, dinner, side, snack, drink, and dessert types

SHOPPING LISTS
• Create and edit shopping lists
• Add items with quantity, unit, food, and label - type "2 cups flour" in one line or fill in the full form
• Real-time sync across devices - changes appear in seconds
• Check items off and drag to reorder within their category
• Add a recipe's ingredients to any shopping list
• Lists stay on screen when you lose signal in the store, and open offline even after a restart
• Check items off offline with Ghee Pro - changes sync when you're back online

COOKBOOKS
• Browse recipes organized by cookbook

DESIGNED FOR SELF-HOSTING
• Connects over HTTPS, plain HTTP, or behind a reverse proxy
• Works with self-signed certificates - tap to trust on first connection, no extra setup
• One screen, no fuss - sign in with username/password, API token, or OIDC like Authentik
• Passkey-only identity providers like Pocket ID work too - needs Mealie v3.23.0 or newer
• Your recipes, meal plans, and shopping lists stay on your Mealie server
• iPhone & iPad layouts, dark mode, and haptic feedback throughout

GHEE PRO (optional)
Download your whole Mealie library offline with Ghee Pro. Recipes, meal plans, shopping lists, Cook Mode, editing, and importing are all free, including up to 15 offline recipes. Pro removes the offline limit and adds one-tap download of your entire collection, offline shopping list check-off, priority support, and Family Sharing for your household. $9.99 one-time or $4.99/year with a 7-day free trial.

Built by a solo developer who uses Ghee daily, ships updates every week or two, and reads every bug report personally. Active in r/Mealie. If you'd like to support the work, you can also leave a tip from the Account tab - entirely optional, never an interruption.

If you've been wanting Mealie on your phone the way Mealie deserves to be on your phone - give Ghee a shot.
