See how Basket List groups recipe ingredients

Each group contains ten familiar UK recipe ingredients. They are examples of the layout, not a fixed list or a popularity ranking.

Your recipes make the list. Basket List combines ingredients from recipes you add or import. Ticking an example below only changes this page and does not save it to your account.

These preview ticks clear when the page reloads. A real Basket List is saved with the ingredients and quantities from your selected recipes.

Sign up, add or import your own recipes, choose what you are cooking, and Basket List will organise their combined ingredients into groups like these.

How your actual shopping list is built

Basket List works from your recipes and choices. It does not choose meals or add a standard set of groceries for you.

  1. Add or import your recipes

    Save the recipes your household actually cooks, including recipes from public web pages.

  2. Choose what you are cooking

    Select the recipes you want to include in this shop instead of starting from a generic master list.

  3. Set the servings

    Tell Basket List how many people each recipe needs to feed so it can calculate the quantities.

  4. Shop by ingredient group

    Basket List combines the selected recipe ingredients, groups them by type, and lets you add any extras.

Your recipes create the list

Basket List does not fill your account with this example list or choose meals for you. It starts with recipes you add or import and select for the shop.

It combines matching ingredients, adjusts quantities for your serving choices, and sorts the result into the ingredient groups shown above. You can add any extra groceries afterwards.
