📋 About This Mod
Sadly Wei's Expansion Food stopped working a while ago for me, so I tweaked their great mod to work with patch 8.
I also added a dependency for "Lore Based Crafting Framework" to replace the default stations as to not clutter the inventory with too many crafting stations. I wanted to find a balance between immersion and gameplay, so the crafting stations won't always fit the food you can craft - but I think it's a good compromise. All 2-slot foods use the framework's cutting board now and 4-slot foods use the cooking cauldron.
The recipes can be found here: Wei's Expansion Food (original).
Requirement:
Lore Based Crafting Framework (updated JWL's crafting framework)
