### 5/5 — Love this app.

*2024-04-29*

I have this app for a while and used time to time. My daughter now 3,5 y.o. And now I find this app really helpful to find some ideas, because we all use all the same used to and sometimes you want to implement a simple change. This helps to add diversity to your family meals.

### 5/5 — So glad I found you!

*2023-08-19, version 1.64*

Love this app - some great recipes. What I’d love to see is the info on autism that is on the website on the app & more recipes for autistic fussy eaters.

### 4/5 — Very good

*2023-07-04, version 1.64*

Very good app however it would be good to have a notes section on each recipe where you could make notes about what they did and didn’t like to make adjustments next time

### 5/5 — Simply Amazing!

These easy to make, simple ingredient recipes have diversified our family dinners and increased the quantity of delicious meal options to choose from. 

Very thankful for this instant value adding app!

An app full of inspiration, yummy recipes and clever ways to sneak in those vegetables. 
Would highly recommend!!

### 5/5 — Game changer for me!

*2022-05-30, version 1.55*

Love this app, I can pick my recipes and it will give me a shopping list in exact amounts. It helps me save pennies and the recipes are fun for the kids too!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2022-05-28*

This app was so helpful with my kids the are asking for pizza bagels and banana pancakes everyday! Before this app my kids hated most food but I’m so thankful I found this app as it gives lots of variety and variations to keep them interested! Thank you so much 😊

### 5/5 — Just what you need

*2022-01-05, version 1.39*

BBC good food good length on this app.

### 3/5 — Average

*2021-11-04, version 1.39*

It’s ok as far as meal ideas go. They are however very samey pasta ones, several Mac n Cheese recipes. I feel there could be more vegetarian and vegan recipes and much more variety. I wouldn’t pay for the app had I known how little I would refer back to it.

### 5/5 — Best app

*2021-08-10*

So easy to use! Full with different and colorful recipes. Not just for kids but for all family. My app to plan the week meal!

### 5/5 — Brilliant app

*2021-01-12, version 1.30*

My 3 year old daughter is a fussy eater. Found this app she really likes the food we made a family cottage pie which we both enjoyed and she liked the butternut squash bites.

### 5/5 — Amazing App. Highly Recommended.

*2020-12-04*

This app is absolutely Amazing! I love it and love the genuine woman behind it. She’s a gem! 
The app is made easy to browse according to diet, meal or duration of cooking. It also has a healthy made easy section not only for children. Lots of meals have became staples in our home. 
On another note, there’s no magic to overcome fussy eating it’s a process. However this app and the website provide loads of ideas as well as strategies to manage it.

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2020-11-30, version 1.30*

This app is absolutely amazing. I love the variety and the organisation. The meal planer is a great idea, and I can search by food/diet etc. I also love the fact that it’s a one off payment and not a subscription. Will recommend it to all my Mum friends!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2022-12-26, version 1.64*

There is more variety on the website which is free the app has a lot less recipes

### 1/5 — Don’t download

*2019-03-04*

Difficult to use. I end up going to the website (FREE) to find recipes as cannot find them using the apps search function !!

### 1/5 — No printing function

*2019-01-16, version 1.07*

Can’t print lists or recipes out on an H/P printer

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2018-10-27, version 1.06*

As with another reviewer I bought this thinking all the recipes from the website would be on this app but no, in fact it is very limited and I have no idea how you can save recipes to favourites! Don’t waste your money like I just have and just look on the website instead, not impressed!

### 1/5 — Over priced

*2018-09-03*

Terrible app waste of money you can get more information from the website than this app so annoying and disappointed

### 1/5 — Poor user experience

*2018-05-17*

I purchased this app thinking it would be easy to save recipes and meal plan.  But it needs a lot of work to be usable.  There does not seem to be a way to save liked recipes other than in the week meal plan.  Also, you can not click on the recipe in the weekly meal plan and go to the recipe page.  I feel like I wasted money on this app.

### 2/5 — No veggie filter?

*2021-02-09, version 1.30*

Just downloaded this because of the good reviews and it does look good, but if I was going to serve meat at every meal my son would gladly eat everything. We try to be as veggie as possible and I really needed ideas for that, so disappointed that I can’t filter the recipes for this. Scrolling through they are majority meat apart from some mac and cheese dishes.

### 2/5 — Has potential but not enough yet

*2020-06-21*

As mentioned by other reviewers, offers nothing that the website doesn’t. Could do with filtering features for SPD eaters like texture, colour, etc.

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2019-02-23, version 1.07*

Way more categories and recipes on the website.
Wanted the app to be able to make is easier and also use ‘Family Meals’ to find fab recipes, but that’s not an option and the meals from that section aren’t on the app.

Really not worth the 3.99. Just use the website.

### 2/5 — Disappointing

*2019-02-05, version 1.07*

I was very disappointed with the lack of fish dishes (only 3) and the limited number of recipes overall.

### 5/5 — Amazing love it

*2025-07-09, version 2.8*

Great app

### 5/5 — A well loved app on my phone

*2024-11-19*

I love this app. I find it has such a range of recipes and they’re easy to search for. It caters to everything you need as a parent. Easy and quick recipes, healthy recipes, hidden veg but also more indulgent recipes and treats etc. I use this regularly and would recommend to other parents. I often make a number of the recipes for myself so this isn’t just for children!

### 5/5 — Amazing family resource!!

*2024-11-19*

Fab recipes for all the family, been using this for my 8 & 9 year old boys since they were toddlers and it has always come through with the family fav’s (even my veg-averse husband). We have the one pot lasagne from the cookbook and the hidden veg Mac & cheese recipes from the app every single week!

### 5/5 — A life saver

*2024-11-19*

I honestly use this app more than any other (including my banking app!) and it’s worth every penny. Full of ideas and regularly updated with more recipes it’s a staple in my meal planning and an absolute life saver when it comes to school lunches (I have 3 children who refuse school lunches). All recipes are foolproof and absolutely delicious, HIGHLY recommend

### 5/5 — The best!

*2024-11-15*

I use this app almost daily! The variety of recipes is fantastic. So many ideas for cramming lots of extra goodness into meals and even to suit the fussiest of eaters. 
The app is really easy to navigate and all of the recipes are super simple to put together, with clear instructions and no obscure ingredients.
If you want to make mealtimes easier then get this app - you won’t regret it!

### 5/5 — Highly Recommend

*2024-11-07*

I downloaded this a few months ago and use it every week to plan our meals and find some new ideas. A great selection of recipes and I found it really easy to navigate. Would definitely recommend

### 5/5 — Great recipes

*2024-09-26*

This app is brilliant and provides so many great recipe ideas for fussy kids. The shopping list and recipe cards functions are also really handy! I don’t usually rate apps but felt like I needed to for my fussy eater! Just had the hidden veg chicken satay for tea and my fussy eaters loved it! 5 stars for sure

### 5/5 — Great app with so many easy recipes

*2024-09-12*

I’ve had this app for years and still return to it time and time again for my fav recipes. So many ideas and inspiration for families. The fact new recipes are added regularly at no extra cost is a huge plus. I also find the feature where you can follow the recipe step by step while cooking really useful. An app you won’t regret getting.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2024-08-11*

I’ve been using g this app for 4 years now and we love all the recipes in here. Easy to make and even the adults enjoy it. 😊

### 5/5 — Fantastic app

*2024-07-31*

This app is a game changer in our home. Such easy, healthy, creative meal ideas for my son.
