Import a Recipe from Text

Paste or type a recipe and Foodie structures it into ingredients and directions.

Steps

Got a recipe in a text message, email, or scribbled on a note? Paste it in and Foodie intelligently parses it into structured ingredients and directions.

How It Works

  1. Tap Import from Text in My Recipes
  2. Paste or type the recipe — it can be informal, no special formatting needed
  3. Foodie structures it into a title, ingredients, and directions
  4. Review, make any edits, and save

This is great for family recipes, messages from friends, or anything that's not a clean web link.

Tip: The messier the text, the more you'll want to review the result. But Foodie handles most formats well — even "a cup of flour, two eggs, some butter" style lists.
