Meal Queue Give the groceries you own a plan. Meal Queue connects named meals to counted pantry items, shows shortages across queued meals and updates inventory only when you confirm what you cooked. 1. Open Pantry → Meal Queue. Name a meal, choose its planned day and add optional notes. 2. Choose an active pantry item and a whole-unit quantity, then add it to the meal. Adding the same item again replaces its draft quantity. 3. Save the plan. Each line shows units needed for this meal, units on the shelf and reservations across all queued meals. A shortage blocks consumption until plans or stock are corrected. 4. After cooking, choose Review and mark cooked, review the item quantities and confirm Consume reserved units. Partial consumption keeps the remaining stock active and creates a used-history record. 5. Use Settings → Create full backup to include queued and cooked meals, pantry photos, shopping items and preferences. Restore replaces current data after confirmation; older backups without meal plans clear existing plans. Units are the inventory counts you entered, not grams or recipe servings. Plans do not automatically buy, reserve physical food, schedule meals in Calendar or change reminders. Dates provide planning context, not food-safety decisions. Follow package and storage instructions. Removing cooked history does not restore consumed stock. Cooking cannot be undone in Meal Queue.
