Recipe lists
Organize Recipe Screenshots Into Lists
Recipe screenshots do not behave like recipes until they have context. Tote helps group cooking ideas by meal, occasion, ingredient, or week.

- High protein

Workflow
From messy save to useful list
01
Save the recipe source
Share the TikTok, Reel, Safari page, Pinterest post, or screenshot to Tote.
02
Capture visible details
Tote can make visible ingredients, steps, captions, and source context easier to search.
03
Add it to cooking lists
Group recipes by weeknight dinner, party, ingredient, diet, cuisine, or grocery intent.
04
Cook from the list
Open the list when meal planning instead of searching across saved videos and screenshots.
What belongs in this kind of list
- Recipe screenshots from social videos, captions, blogs, and cooking sites
- TikToks, Reels, and Pinterest posts with cooking ideas
- Ingredient lists, timing notes, substitutions, and serving ideas
- Dinner plans, party menus, meal prep, baking, and cocktails
- Recipes saved from Safari, Notes, messages, and screenshots
- Ideas that need to sit beside grocery or event planning notes
Limits to know
- If the screenshot only shows the finished dish, save the original recipe link for full instructions.
- Tote can organize recipe ideas, but it is not a live grocery-ordering app.
- Long recipes may need the source URL or multiple screenshots to preserve all steps.
