Early release — This is the initial public release of MiseFlow. If you run into any bugs or unexpected behaviour, please open an issue.

MiseFlow

Mise en place — the culinary practice of preparing everything before you cook.

MiseFlow is an Obsidian plugin that turns your recipe notes into a full meal planning and shopping system. Plan your week, build your grocery list from only the ingredients you actually need, and view your recipes as interactive cards while you cook.

Features

Meal Planning

  • Meal plan note — Your meal plan lives in a real vault note (configurable path). The plugin reads and writes it automatically; you can also edit it by hand and the plugin picks up the changes.
  • Add recipes to your plan with an optional day (Mon–Sun) and meal type (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Snack). Pick exactly the ingredients you need at add-time — nothing is added blindly.
  • Ingredient selection — When adding a recipe, a modal shows the full ingredient list with checkboxes. Nothing is selected by default; tick only what you need to buy.

Grocery List

  • Note-backed — Your grocery list is stored as a readable Markdown note (# Grocery List, sections per category, - [ ] checkboxes). Edit it directly or let the plugin manage it.
  • Smart merging — Ingredients from multiple recipes (and one-off items) are merged by name + unit. 1 lb beef from Bolognese + 1 lb beef added manually = 2 lb beef.
  • Grouping modes — Switch between By category, By recipe (split per-recipe quantities), By source (Meal Plan vs Manually Added), and Flat list at any time.
  • One-off items — Add anything not tied to a recipe via Add item. One-offs are written to the grocery note and merged correctly with recipe quantities.
  • Export — Copy the grocery list as plain text, a Markdown checklist, or grouped by category.

Shopping Assistant

Open the Shopping Assistant panel (ribbon icon or command) to:

  • See how many meals are planned this week with a link to open the meal plan note
  • Check off grocery items as you shop — checkbox state is stored in the note (- [x])
  • Reset checks between shopping trips
  • Add one-off items and remove them with a right-click or long-press

Recipe View

Open any recipe note in the Recipe View for a clean cooking experience:

  • Hero image — Set image: frontmatter to a vault file or URL
  • Portion multiplier — Scale the recipe up or down; quantities update in the recipe view and in the grocery list
  • Nutrition panel — Calories, protein, fat, and carbs from frontmatter. Configure whether your values are per-serving or recipe totals
  • Timing badges — prepTime, cookTime shown as at-a-glance badges
  • Diet tags — diet: vegan or diet: [vegan, gluten-free] displayed as badges
  • Last made date — Stamped automatically when you add a recipe to your meal plan
  • Allergen warning — Red banner if the recipe's allergens overlap with your personal list
  • Meat temperature badges — Safe internal temperature guidance on meat ingredients (toggleable)
  • High-GI badges — Optional warning badges on high glycemic index ingredients (configurable dictionary)
  • Mark as cooked — Record a cook with today's date (or a custom date) from the recipe view
  • Add to meal plan — Add the recipe to your plan directly from the recipe view

Recipe Library

  • Meal suggester — Surfaces recipes you haven't cooked recently, with optional filters for favourites and allergens
  • Cooking stats — Leaderboard of your most-cooked recipes
  • Favourites — Star a recipe with one click; favorite: true is written to frontmatter
