API token
Generate one under User Settings, API Tokens. Stored in the iOS Keychain, never in plain preferences.
For Mealie self-hosters
Mealie, natively in your pocket.
Sizzzle talks to the Mealie API directly. No re-import, no second copy of your data, no browser tab pretending to be an app.
What Sizzzle does with your server
The client is generated from the Mealie OpenAPI schema, so the coverage is broad rather than a hand-picked subset.
Recipes
- Create, edit, delete and duplicate
- Import from URL through Mealie’s scraper
- Images, assets and .zip import
- Ratings, favourites and last made
- Ingredient parsing with nlp, brute or OpenAI
Planning
- Household meal plan, seven meal types
- Meal plan rules with AND / OR filters
- Timeline events with photo and note
- Random recipe and copy previous day
Shopping
- Multiple lists with label grouping
- Send recipe ingredients scaled to servings
- Swipe to check off, auto remove completed
- Linked recipes shown per list
Organising
- Cookbooks with query filters and reordering
- Tags, categories and tools

- Merge duplicate foods and units
Connects the way your setup expects
Username and password
Standard Mealie login, with the JWT handled and refreshed for you.
Custom headers
Add arbitrary HTTP headers for Authelia, Authentik or any reverse proxy that fronts your instance.
Before a server URL is saved, Sizzzle checks that it is reachable and tells you what is wrong when it is not. Plain HTTP is blocked unless the server lives on the same device.
More than one server, at the same time
Each Mealie instance becomes its own space. The family server and the test instance sit side by side and switch in a tap, which the web UI cannot do. A local space can sit right next to them, and a single action copies a recipe from one into the other.
- Run production and staging without logging out
- Copy a recipe from the server into a local space to take it offline
- Keep a private space that never touches the server
Spaces
- Home server mealie.home.lan
- Test instance staging.example.dev
- Cabin On this device only
Two things to know
Offline is read only on a Mealie space
Recipes and images you have opened stay readable with no connection. Creating and editing needs the server, because the server is the source of truth. Local spaces read and write fully offline.
Sizzzle follows Mealie
The SDK is generated from the Mealie OpenAPI schema and tracked against recent 3.x releases. If your instance is older, some screens may show fewer options.
Point it at your server and cook.
Install, paste the URL, paste a token. Everything already on your server is there.
