🥑 how to organise your recipes & grocery list with the ultimate notion template ⭐ in the kitchen

[@minowriistudio]

This looks like my type of notion template, love this! Simple but aesthetically pleasing!

[@jddesignonline]

thank you!! that’s literally the two main things I go for 😍😍😍

Love the editing style of your videos, really unique and grab-fast-attention-ish 😆 (especially in the intros).

[@jddesignonline]

thank you!! i'm so glad to hear that -- i always think they're a bit boring but maybe cos i stare at them so much during editing 😂

[@BobanG.]

@@jddesignonline Well i like that style. I dont know, you will need a bigger sample to determine haha (joking ofc).

Thanks so much for this template I just purchased! Is there an easy way to add quantity needed for ingredients and have the grocery list show a sum of number needed vs what’s in stock? That would be so handy!

[@jddesignonline]

@@lguccisynch thanks so much! I’m so glad you like it - unfortunately that’s not something I’ve been able to figure out since ingredients can be attached to multiple recipes it’s quite complicated 🙈😅

[@louidakock7049]

Can you drag and drop from the recipe library to plan your weekly meals or do you search for the recipe that you want to eat for that specific meal?

[@jddesignonline]

you search for the recipe in that particular field on the database ☺️

Do I need to have a notion subscription to be able to use it ? I already purchased someone else’s template and it said you could use it for free, added all my ingredient database, 5 recipes and that was it, out of space, have to pay notion subscription to keep using it

[@jddesignonline]

no you don’t - I only use the free version of notion and even with all of my templates under my account I’ve never come across any issues with space ❤

Hey Jess, Thank you so much for this amazing Notion template you shared and the option to purchase it on Etsy. I've been working on translating everything into German and integrating it into my Notion board for the past couple of days. However, I've come across a little issue. 😅 When you have various recipes and, for example, one recipe calls for 100g cheese, while another needs 250g cheese, you've only clicked on "cheese" without specifying the quantity in the shopping list. Do you go back into each individual recipe and note down the quantities elsewhere? That seems a little complicated to me to check each recipe and each item. Would be happy, if you have a solution for me 🥰

[@jddesignonline]

thanks so much for your comment! but unfortunately no I haven’t figured out how to add quantities to the grocery section as of yet, I personally just like the list to be simple so I know what I need to have rather than the amount. & then each recipe in the note section below is where I list the quantity and instructions, since that’s what I would have open when I was actually making a recipe. hope that makes sense 😍✨

[@ellamirelle]

@@jddesignonline Hey Jess, thanks for your answer. However, I'm curious about your process when you go shopping. Do you manually write down quantities for each item beforehand, or do you find yourself in the supermarket checking each recipe again to see how much you need?

[@jddesignonline]

@ellamirelle4570 no like I said I just buy what I need, ie; if cheese is on the list I just buy whatever size is on sale that day; or milk we buy the same amount every week, for meat usually I just know that if chicken is on there again I’ll get whatever size is on special - it’s not the most exact system but it works well for me 😁✨

[@SonaliPatel-is8bg]

Hi, how did you filter groceries for current week ? As there is no relation between groceries and ingredients databases

[@jddesignonline]

@@SonaliPatel-is8bg the ingredients of meals in the weekly plan will automatically add into the grocery list if out of stock ☺️ as long as the dates are correctly set in the meal weekly plan for the current week 🙌

[@RachaelBailey-pi7lp]

where did you find all your icons?

[@jddesignonline]

a website called icon8 has them in a bunch of styles, the one's i used were iOS outlined 🤍🤍

[@Muneyplayz1]

What database was the planning?

[@jddesignonline]

the meal planning is it's own database 😁

[@Muneyplayz1]

@@jddesignonline I meant the this week top view, how did u do that?

[@jddesignonline]

@@Muneyplayz1 yep that’s its own database, it uses a relation property from the recipe database as well as some formulas (there’s roughly 28 hidden properties that aren’t shown in the walkthrough that get it to work how it does) ☺️☺️

[@Muneyplayz1]

@@jddesignonline can u do a video on that?

[@jddesignonline]

probably not unfortunately, i feel like those sorts of things are the benefit of purchasing the template & it's not entirely fair to share for those that have done so 🤍 hope you understand!
