I'm in a similar situation as yourself and I've been looking to do something similar.

One tool I've had bookmarked for this is Cooklang (https://cooklang.org/) which seems to cover most of the needs.

• grocy

  368 6,247 9.1 Blade

  ERP beyond your fridge - Grocy is a web-based self-hosted groceries & household management solution for your home

  

I don't see them on here yet, so I'll throw these three in (they're all self-hosted, which might be a deal breaker for you):

The closest to what you're asking for that I'm aware of is probably Grocy: https://grocy.info/

Personally, I find that "keeping track of what you have" introduces a LOT of micro-management. Too much for me to enjoy, so while I used Grocy productively for a while, I eventually ditched it.

On the simpler side - There's Mealie (https://hay-kot.github.io/mealie/) and Tandoor (https://tandoor.dev/)

They both manage to import recipes fine, and do meal planning fairly well. Tandoor is a little closer to Grocy in that it's smart enough to group ingredients for your shopping list (mealie will generate duplicate entries for the same item if used in two different recipes), but otherwise they're fairly similar.
