Tips:
- When you edit the settings for a meal, this will edit the settings for all occurrences of this meal in your weekly layout. If you want to set up unique settings for particular days of the week, use the "Add Meal" option to create a new meal. For example, you could set up "Weekend Breakfast" as a new meal type and assign this to your layout on Saturday and Sunday. This will allow you to have unique settings for this meal if you may want allow for more prep time and complex breakfast recipes on the weekends.
