BaoBei Kitchen: Recipe Manager
Shared Meal Planner & Grocery
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
New in 2.0: Shared Kitchens. Plan meals, shop and pick recipes with the people you cook with — one plan, one list, everyone's recipes.
BaoBei Kitchen is your recipe manager and meal planner — on your own, or in a Shared Kitchen with the people you cook with. Friends, family, roommates, the cabin weekend, the supper club: one kitchen, one plan, one list, everyone's recipes. On iPhone and iPad, in sync across your devices.
SHARED KITCHENS
• Start a kitchen and invite people with a link — nothing to sign up for
• Bring recipes in from your own library; every member sees them
• One meal plan for the group, one grocery list for the shop
• A quiet heads-up when a member plans a meal or adds to the list
• See who picked up what as the list gets ticked off
• Thumbs up or down the recipes on the table; the most liked rise to the top
• Log a cook and every member sees it, photo and notes included
• Leave whenever you like and take copies with you; a kitchen that ends stays there to read
RECIPE MANAGEMENT
• Create recipes with ingredients, step-by-step instructions and photos
• Import from any URL — paste a link, or share from Safari straight into BaoBei Kitchen
• Import from a photo — scan a cookbook page or pick up to 5 images; on-device text recognition reads the title, ingredients and steps into a new recipe
• Organize ingredients and steps into sections; combine recipes into one
• Scale servings up or down — ingredients and instructions adjust automatically
• Convert between imperial and metric
• Log each cook with notes, ratings and photos
• Share a recipe by link — they tap it to import the recipe into their own BaoBei Kitchen
MEAL PLANNING
• Plan your week on a visual calendar, in day or week view
• Multiple recipes per meal (main + sides)
• Weekly meal-prep reminders
GROCERY LIST
• Type an item and it lands in the right aisle — Produce, Dairy, Pantry and more
• Add a recipe's ingredients with one tap, or bulk-add from your meal plan with serving adjustments
• Smart merging combines duplicates so the list matches the trolley
• Export to Apple Reminders
BROWSING & FILTERING
• Grid and list views
• Filter by category, protein, cuisine and cook time
• Full-text search across recipes, ingredients and steps
ICLOUD SYNC
• Your recipes, meal plans and grocery list sync across iPhone and iPad
• Private — synced through your iCloud account, never to our servers
