I’d LOVE a section for freezer friendly meals! I often do this for loved ones before new babies, sickness, etc so they can heat up and have available whenever. I’m looking for some good ones right now to make and bring for my grandma in a few weeks.

The index is not working for me. Am I doing something wrong? When I click on a category it just goes back to the index.

Weird... I'm using it right now and it's working for me. Are you using the app or web?

The same thing happened to me on the app too. But you can just scroll down instead of clicking on the links if you don't want to use a browser.

Is there a way to search by a single ingredient (ie napa cabbage)

Caroline Chambers's avatar

Yes! The app doesn't have search, but the browser does. Just go to the homepage of whattocook.substack.com and click the magnifying glass!

From the main page, the search function doesn’t seem to give any recipe results. But I might be missing something! 🙂 is there a way to search for recipes?

Also- when I go to browse the index, it moves me to a browser and out of the app. And thus logs me out. I love your content but am not a Substack UI fan 😕

This TOC is just amazing! To be able to easily access your delicious recipes makes me want yo try them all now. However I do not see a search bar anywhere. I’m currently searching for your Elote Mexican recipe.

The index isn't working for me. When I click the 15-minute category, it just takes me back to the top of the page. Anyone else?

Caroline Chambers's avatar

Hi Grace! I'm looking into this, but if you scroll to the very bottom (annoying I know!) it's there! xo

I just love that a pitcher of Margs is categorized as a 15 minute meal...because honestly, yes.

Love love LOVE the index. Would you ever consider tagging by season? It would be great to browse fall recipes before I head out to the farmer's market, for example. Thank you!

Do you happen to have an overnight oats recipe? Something good for my active teenager to fuel her all day?

I know this comment is super old but was scrolling for fun- I’ve been using this one recently and it works great: https://feelgoodfoodie.net/recipe/overnight-oats/

Do you have a "make it ahead" for dinner parties category? Know a lot of your recipes are make ahead-able but would love to see them all in one place!

Would it be possible to add a “sauces” section to the index? I’ve made so many great sauces from your recipes over the years (my husband has called you the sauce queen!). Sometimes it would be nice to “zhuzh” up some random leftovers or basic meal and often find myself scrolling through a bunch of old links to find a good pairing. A quick reference would be nice!

Would it be possible to add a low-carb/keto friendly (or easy subs/omissions) section to the index? (In your spare time lol)
