You: Yes, that sounds like a solid menu. But how do I keep track of everything I need? I don’t want to miss any ingredients. AI: Good call! Start by listing out the ingredients for each dish. I can help organize them by category, like produce, dairy, and spices, so it’s easy to check them off as you shop. You’ll be able to see at a glance what’s missing or what you already have.
