Behavior Change - Clicking recipe on Meal Planner goes to recipe
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
This is not related to an existing issue/problem.
Describe the solution you'd like
Currently, when going through the meal planner page: /plan/
, when you click on a planned meal:
It brings up the Edit meal function:
From a UX perspective, it might make more sense to go directly to the recipe in question (EG: view/recipe/XX
).
Currently the recipe function is hidden behind the three dot's menu:
Where the edit function (already) exists.

Additional context
If the behavior is intended, that is fine - but, it seems like that once you plan a meal, the likelihood of needing to edit the meal is slim, but the action of wanting to view the recipe for the meal is higher.
For what it is worth, this is a VERY low priority feature enhancement, and should be an afterthought compared to the existing features that are on the table because I think those listed in the milestone are more important. :)
It is intended this way so far but I see your point. Will need to think about this but might be something we can change.
It might make sense to have another tab completely, just called "View Plan"
We keep a tablet in the kitchen, and having that view would make pulling up today's recipe to cook much easier.
We however do the planning from a separate laptop, and the edit function is nice to have.
we have many settings stored in local storage/cookies to have them device specific (most search settings for example), maybe we could just add a client setting to toggle the bahavior between edit and open so that you can set it once on the client and keep it there.
I would tend to agree with the proposed behavior. I had been using verion 1.0.1 (default in the K8S manifest in the Git repo), but I updated to 1.4.8 and now see the "Recipe"option when selecting an entry in the Meal Planner view. As long as I have an option (as currently exists) to get from the Planner to Recipe view, I'm happy.
+1 to the proposed behaviour which is also what I expected the first time I used it. Especially as the "edit meal plan entry" functionality is still available from the kebab and contextual menu.
