The joy of cooking without the planning

I love to cook, but having to figure out what to make everyday often gets frustrating. Then I may find recipes that look great but read that there are ingredients, like onions, that I don’t like. Waste of my time. Here, it does the planning, offers recipes tailored to my likes/needs and put it all in a list. A keeper :)

Must Have for Busy Families

I cannot believe how intuitive this app is! It totally takes the “bore” out of the “chore”. Get great meal recipes that kids love and then make a grocery shopping list. My wife is happy with me again 😀

Does what I need

Added all my recipes from instagram. There’s a ton of other recipes too which is cool. It’s been making my meal plans for me. I like that I can swap the recipes it gives me with other suggestions if I’m not feeling something. Does a bunch of things I haven’t used yet so I’ll update the review if I do 👍
