The Old Way: The Recipe Struggle

We’ve all been there—scrolling through Instagram, spotting a delicious recipe, and instantly wanting to try it. But instead of easily saving it for later, you’re forced to rely on some old-school methods.

Screenshotting recipes from websites or Instagram comments seems like a quick fix, but those screenshots quickly get buried in your phone’s photo library, lost forever when you need them most.

Then there’s the sticky note strategy—frantically writing down ingredients on whatever paper is nearby, only for that note to mysteriously vanish when you’re ready to hit the grocery store. I’ve done it myself!

These methods may feel familiar, but they’re riddled with inefficiencies. Not only do they make it hard to keep track of recipes, but they also require you to do extra work by manually creating shopping lists from the ingredients. It’s time-consuming, messy, and frustrating.

The New Way: Shop the Recipe™

Now, there’s a better, smarter way to save and shop for recipes directly from Instagram, thanks to Grocers List’s innovative Shop the Recipe™ feature. This makes it easy for shoppers to engage with recipes from their favorite Instagram creators without the hassle of manual tracking or list-building.

How It Works

1. Recipe creators set up keywords for their followers to comment on recipe posts.

2. Followers who commented the keyword will receive an automated DM.

3. This DM contains an affiliate link to purchase the ingredients directly from Instacart.

For Shoppers: Convenience at Your Fingertips

Instead of capturing screenshots or copying ingredient lists manually, with Shop the Recipe™, you can instantly add all the ingredients from a recipe to your Instacart with just a few clicks.

Imagine seeing a recipe on Instagram, commenting a keyword like “SHOP,” and then receiving a clickable link that instantly transfers those ingredients to your shopping cart—no manual entry required. This makes shopping for your favorite social media recipes easier than ever.

For Recipe Creators: Monetize with Ease

For creators, Shop the Recipe™ opens up a seamless way to monetize their recipes.

When you set up this feature, Grocers List automatically pulls the ingredients from the recipe link you provide and integrates them into Instacart for your audience. By simply adding your Instacart affiliate ID, you can start earning affiliate sales from each order that comes through. That means every time someone shops your recipe, you get paid (cha-ching), turning your love for sharing recipes into a steady revenue stream.
