Items you need today

Not everything on the list is needed at once. Bolus marks each item with when the meal that needs it happens.

The markers

Items carry a TODAY or TOMORROW label next to the ingredient name. Anything without one is needed later in the week.

Underneath, the row says what it is for, for example “For Tuesday’s Roasted Asparagus, Tomato & Burrata”, so you can see which meal you would be short for if you left it.

Shopping in smaller trips

If you would rather not do one big shop, use the markers: pick up what is labelled today and tomorrow, and leave the rest. Fresh items in particular are often better bought closer to the day.

The trade-off is more trips. Bolus does not mind either way; the list is the same list, and the counts simply fill in more slowly.

The banner on your week

If you are short of anything for the next two days, the Upcoming tab shows a banner counting what is missing, with a shortcut through to the list. The Today card does the same for the meal in front of you. See when you are short of ingredients.
