Stop screenshotting food posts and losing them in your camera roll. Feastlee lets you mass import recipes from Instagram — paste multiple links and get structured, cookable recipes in seconds.
If you're anything like most home cooks, your Instagram saved folder is a graveyard of food posts you meant to cook. You tap the bookmark icon, the post disappears into a list of 400 other saved items, and you never see it again.
Feastlee was built specifically to fix this. Here's how to bulk import recipes from Instagram so they become real, organized, cookable recipes — not just bookmarks.
Instagram has become one of the most popular places to discover new food. Food creators post beautiful short videos, reels, and carousel posts that show ingredients and steps in seconds. It's inspiring, shareable, and addictive.
The problem: Instagram isn't a recipe app. There's no structured ingredient list, no servings count, no cook time field. When you save a post, you get a link to a video — not a recipe you can actually follow in the kitchen with flour on your hands.
The average home cook has 200+ saved Instagram food posts. Studies show fewer than 10% ever cook those recipes. The friction between "saved" and "cooked" kills great food ideas before they reach the pan.
Most recipe apps let you import one URL at a time. You paste a link, wait for it to process, then paste another. If you have 30 Instagram posts you want to save, that's 30 separate trips through the import flow.
Feastlee's mass import lets you paste multiple Instagram links at once. The app queues them all, processes them in parallel using AI, and turns each post into a full structured recipe — with:
On Instagram, open any food post or reel. Tap the three-dot menu (⋯) and select "Copy link". Do this for every post you want to import. You can collect 5, 10, or 50+ links — there's no hard limit.
Tap the Import tab at the bottom of the app. You'll see a text field that says "Paste one or more URLs". This is where the bulk import magic happens.
Paste all your copied links into the field — one per line or separated by spaces. Feastlee automatically detects each URL and queues them for processing. You'll see a preview list of all the posts about to be imported.
Tap Import Recipes. Feastlee uses AI to analyze each Instagram post, extract or infer the recipe content, and structure it into a full recipe card. Depending on how many you imported, this takes 10–60 seconds.
Your imported recipes appear in your library. From there you can edit any field, add them to collections (e.g. "Weeknight Dinners," "Party Snacks"), mark favorites, and adjust serving sizes.
Pro tip: After a bulk import, use Feastlee's category filter to quickly scan all your new recipes by type. This makes it easy to spot duplicates or decide which ones to cook first.
Yes. Feastlee handles both regular Instagram posts and Reels. For reels where the recipe is spoken or shown in the video, the AI extracts what it can from the caption and post context. Results are best when the creator has included ingredients in the caption — which most food creators do.
No. You never connect your Instagram account to Feastlee. You simply copy public post links and paste them into the app. Feastlee accesses only the public content of the posts you share with it — nothing else.
Free users can import a limited number of recipes per month, which is plenty for casual discovery. Feastlee Pro removes all import limits, so you can do truly unlimited bulk imports as often as you want. If you're doing a big initial import of your Instagram saved list, Pro is worth it for that session alone.
Bulk importing Instagram recipes into Feastlee takes about 2 minutes to set up and can clear your entire Instagram saved backlog in one session. Instead of 200 lost bookmarks, you'll have an organized, searchable recipe library you'll actually use.
