Priority 1: Core Navigation & Layout Components #46
Description
User Story
As a recipe platform user, I want intuitive navigation and consistent layout components so that I can easily discover recipes and navigate between sections with confidence.
Background
Core navigation components form the foundation of user experience. These must be implemented first as they're dependencies for all other features.

- Navigation Menu: Main site navigation, category browsing
- Breadcrumb: Recipe browsing context, category hierarchy
- Separator: Visual content organization
- Card: Recipe previews, content containers
- Avatar: User profiles, chef attribution
Recipe Platform Context
- Button: "Save Recipe", "Start Cooking", "Add to Meal Plan"
- Navigation: Recipe categories, cultural cuisines, meal types
