How to display today's meal in HA.

1. Get Tandoor API Key

Well, first you need go to /settings page to get API key. Create a new one that only 'read'.
Ex. tda_******__***********fd58

2. Create your HA sensors
   Create a REST sensor with today's meal plan. It's only fetch the first item.

  - platform: rest
    resource_template: http://tandoor:9928/api/meal-plan/?from_date={{ now().strftime('%Y-%m-%d') }}&to_date={{ now().strftime('%Y-%m-%d') }}
    name: Tandoor todays meal
    headers:
      Authorization: Bearer <<API_TOKEN>>
      Content-Type: application/json
    value_template: "{{ value_json[0].recipe_name }}"
    json_attributes_path: "$.[0].recipe"
    json_attributes: 
     - id
     - name
     - image
    force_update: true
    scan_interval: 300

4. Create General Camera Entity
   Create a general camera.
   In Home Assistant, go to Integrations and create a new generic camera.
   In the input field, you can use
   {{ states.sensor.tandoor_todays_meal.attributes.image }}

Rename the new camera to entity tandoor_todays_meal_image

5. Create a Lovelace card
   Now you can place you card on your dashboard.

show_state: true
show_name: true
camera_view: auto
type: picture-entity
entity: sensor.tandoor_todays_meal
name: 'Today: '
camera_image: camera.tandoor_todays_meal_image
card_mod:
  style: |
    ha-card {
    max-height: 300px !important;
    overflow: hidden;
    display: flex;
    align-items: center;
    justify-content: center;
    }

If you have any suggestions, improvements or you made your own custome lovelace card, let me know.

Just wanted to say thank you for this - great help.
FYI I had a lot of errors / issues.. as it turns out you can't have (as I was):
Authorization: Bearer !secret tandoor_api
Not sure why not.. as thought it would auto resolve like:

api_key: !secret cloudflare_api for example...
Maybe I need to do : Authorization: !secret tandoor_api with the Bearer in the secrets file as well...

My pleasure and thank you for your information.

I'm still learning and I managed to load the recipes from specific day into Home Assistant. I wrote python script (used pyscript add-on) that loads the recipes and make a sensor for each recipe.
Then I could make a card with this info for example to cast to Google Home Hub or other device.

I haven't found another way to display the website to Google Home Hub because the instance isn't expose over HTTPS.
