viewing recipes only shows ingredients, no instructions on how to cook #1972

expected to see instructions on preparation of the meal, since that is what a recipe means. viewing the recipe only shows the list of ingredients, that is not what a recipe means.

only being shown the list of ingredients is rather pointless as you then have to look up the instructions yourself, and online recipes would provide the list of ingredients anyway, so it sort of makes the app feel redundant if it only provides the list of ingredients

Team's Response

While having the methods to cook is indeed a valid thing to include, it was something that the team has decided this was something more appropriate past v2.1, since visual aids are usually required for instructions to prepare the meal,. which is out of scope for a CLI program. Perhaps we could have clarified in the UG that this application is meant to help the user keep track of whether they currently have sufficient ingredients to prepare their meal plan for the week.
