Example:

This format has a few advantages, mainly that you can immediately see which steps can be parallelized, and which steps can't. Additionally, all ingredients are listed in the order of usage.

Please provide a concise description of the feature that would resolve your issue.

It would be fantastic, if Mealie could offer a mode where recipes can be entered in this tabular flowchart-style format.

Please consider and list out some caveats or tradeoffs made in your design decision

• It might be hard to implement
• Some people might prefer the conventional format
• Providing both formats in parallel would be an increased maintenance effort

This is an interesting idea / format.. I do like the fact that it highlights what steps need to be done in parallel. I guess my main concern is that some of the steps details would be lost.
