Say Mmm on Evernote

Good news for Evernote fans…now you can use Say Mmm to do more with recipes and grocery lists on Evernote.

Millions of people use Evernote to remember and organize all sorts of information, and that includes lots of recipes and grocery lists. With our new API integration, people can use some of Say Mmm’s more popular features for creating and organizing grocery lists right on Evernote. It’s free to use these features, and they can be enabled simply by logging in with an Evernote account at: http://www.saymmm.com/evernote.php

Here are some cool things you can do:

See how it works in this video:

With a free Say Mmm account, you can also plan meals with ease in the calendar, save time with smart grocery list features, share recipes with friends, and more. Plus, you can just click to send your plans and lists to your Evernote account to save and use on different devices.

There are several challenges in converting natural language text into organized grocery lists with nutritional info, so automatic grocery lists aren’t always perfect, but we think it will still save you from a ton of the work of typing and organizing everything. We hope you enjoy Say Mmm on Evernote and look forward to feedback and ways we can keep making it better. For more questions, check out our FAQ page.

Yes, it should work when you add tags to recipes on mobile devices to create and combine shopping lists.

I'm usually computer literate, but this is just not working for me. It's creating over 130 lists in the Say Mmm notebook from 47 tagged recipes. When I hit the 'combine' button, it's only combining a seemingly random few of those 130+ lists into one shopping list. Specific, step by step instructions would be helpful please. I'm working in the Evernote desktop application and the duplicate lists are being created during Sync.

- Brian from Say Mmm contacted me via email and was very helpful. It was, of course, user error. Just in case others are doing what I was doing, the Say Mmm tag should not be added until you're ready to make a list, and then only to the recipes for which you want a list. This should be done for no more than approximately 10 recipes at a time. If more need to be done, do them in small batches, then hit the 'combine' button to make one list. I had thought every recipe I had was supposed to have a tag from the outset, my error. Also, if you have a list of other items you need to pick up (say cleaning or pet supplies, or groceries not related to a recipe), you can make a separate list and tag it 'Mmm List' to generate a list with checkboxes in the Say Mmm notebook that can be combined with your recipe list.
  
  Thanks again for your help Brian! Evernote and Say Mmm are amazing!
