Mealie is a self hosted recipe manager, meal planner and shopping list with a RestAPI backend and a reactive frontend built in Vue for a pleasant user experience for the whole family. Easily add recipes into your database by providing the URL and Mealie will automatically import the relevant data, or add a family recipe with the UI editor. Mealie also provides an API for interactions from 3rd party applications.

Installing it

Open the dashboard, go to Apps, press Add on it and apply the change. Or from a terminal on the box:

sudo homebox install mealie

Where to open it

Open it at your box's address with that port — the dashboard links to it directly once it is running.

Good to know

• The first account you create on the first visit becomes the admin
• Import by URL works on most recipe sites; when it does not, the manual editor takes a paste of the ingredient list and splits it for you
• BASE_URL has to match the address you use, or the share links it generates point somewhere unreachable
