Linking Related Recipes

Link recipes. I have a base recipe that I start with for other recipes. I'd like to be able to link the base recipe as an ingredient.

    💡 Proposal for Improvement in the Mr. Cook App: “Related Recipes” Feature

    A new section should be implemented within each recipe, called “Related Recipes”, allowing users to link to other preparations previously entered in the app. This would avoid unnecessary content duplication and improve both organization and user experience.

    📌 Use Case:

    In many main recipes, such as Lomo Saltado, there are complementary preparations that already exist in the app, like White Rice or Garlic Paste. Currently, these sub-recipes are often rewritten within the main recipe, causing content duplication and clutter in the database.

    ✅ Proposal:

    Instead of copying these secondary recipes again within the main recipe procedure, the system should allow inserting a direct link or a reference block that leads users to the existing related recipe in the app.

    Allow users to link previously entered recipes using an internal search tool when writing or editing a recipe.

    Provide a quick preview of the related recipe (name, servings, estimated time).

    🎯 Benefits:

    Avoids duplication and improves content consistency.

    Enhances user navigation between complementary recipes.

    Reduces maintenance and updates of redundant content.

    Optimizes database storage.

    This application already has this update and works very well.
