Ghee - Mealie Companion App

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 (v1.0+).

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 recipe 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

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

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
• Sign in with username/password, API token, or OIDC like Authentik
• Your recipes, meal plans, and shopping lists stay on your Mealie server

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 buy me a jar of ghee 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.
