PRIVATE COOKBOOK
No password needed. Enter your email address and we'll send a one-time sign-in email. New members automatically get their own household unless invited to join another.
Households are invitation-only. You cannot browse or join someone else's household without an invitation.
New recipes are private by default.
Rename or delete custom categories. Deleting removes that category only. Recipes retain their other categories; “No Category” appears only for recipes left with none. Standard categories are protected.
No custom categories to manage yet.
HOUSEHOLD SETTINGS
Everyone signs in separately and shares the household's recipes, favorites, and meal plans.
The owner chooses who can invite others, remove members, or receive ownership. A Sharing Member can invite people without becoming a co-owner.
Invitation links expire after seven days. Only household owners and approved Sharing Members can create them.
Checking invitation permissions…
This invitation lets you join an existing household to share recipes and meal plans. You can only join through an invitation from an owner or approved Sharing Member. Otherwise, Meal Alchemist automatically gives you your own household.
