This is the list as Shop shows it, with the amount written before the name. The app puts the name on top and the amount underneath. Items a new install already has in Kitchen as Have it, and items the app treats as staples, show inside their aisle with an Add button and stay off the list you share or send to a cart. Tap Add on a row and it joins the list.

Carrots stay on one line as 2 + 1 1/2 lb, because Chicken Noodle Soup counts 2 and Roast Chicken and Carrots weighs 1 1/2 lb. Chicken broth from Chicken and Rice (2 cups) and Chicken Noodle Soup (8 cups) adds up to 10 cups. Olive oil from the roast (3 tbsp), the drumsticks (2 tbsp) and Chicken and Rice (2 tbsp) adds up to 7 tbsp. Garlic from the roast (4 cloves) and Chicken and Rice (2 cloves) adds up to 6 cloves, and yellow onion from those two recipes plus Chicken Noodle Soup adds up to 3. Black pepper is 1/2 tsp in each of the four recipes and shows as 2 tsp. Salt totals 4 1/4 tsp across the recipes. Shop shows that total as 1 3/8 tbsp. 8 bone-in chicken thighs, 1 1/2 lb boneless chicken thighs, 1 1/2 lb boneless chicken breasts and 8 chicken drumsticks each stay on their own line. Garlic powder from the drumsticks stays at 1 tsp.
