## What is TGB?

Do you buy groceries with a plan, then still feel stuck at dinner time? TGB helps you map out the week first, then builds a grocery list from your plan. Your shopping matches your week menu, so you use what you buy. Save what works and move things around when plans change. Keep recipe ideas in one place and make dinners easier!

Meal planning should not drain your energy. TGB helps you lay out a one-week meal plan that fits your routine. Add recipes to your weekly menu, move meals around, and change portions fast. It stays flexible, so your plan can keep up with your week.

How it works
- Pick the recipes you want for this week
- Add them to your plan and adjust servings in seconds
- Your grocery list follows your plan for the week
- Follow the steps, cook, and save your favourites for next time

Weekly meal planner that stays flexible

Plan lunch, dinner, or a full week menu in minutes. When plans shift, your meal plan does not fall apart. Move meals to another day, switch recipes, and adjust portions without starting from scratch. You stay in control, even on the busy weeks, and dinner still makes sense.

Recipes you will actually cook at home

TGB keeps things practical in the kitchen. No complicated projects, just recipes you can cook at home without stress. You get clear steps, simple ingredients, and quick notes where they matter. It is also a good place to keep healthy food ideas you want to try. Save the meals you love so they are one tap away next time.

Nutrition facts and macros per serving

Trying to make smarter choices without tracking everything? TGB shows a simple nutrition panel on each recipe, per serving. It is easy to compare two meals before you add one to your plan. Use the breakdown as a guide, then just cook and move on.

Grocery list that matches your plan

Plan the week, then stop thinking about the store. Your recipes turn into a grocery list that stays in one place. If you change a meal, the list can change with it too. Less waste, fewer extra trips, and a list that finally makes sense.

Made for healthy meal prep for the week

Meal prep works when it fits real life. Start with meal prep ideas you would actually cook, not the perfect ones. Build a high protein meal plan when you want one, then change it up the next week. Keep portions adjustable and keep the recipes simple and healthy. Structure helps, extremes do not.

Customize your personal meal plan

Make it match how you actually eat. Choose your preferences, keep the week organized, and adjust things without turning planning into a big task. Most weeks are busy, so quick meals win. When you get more time, it is easy to add variety and try something new. Use it for healthy meal ideas when you feel stuck. The meal planner is built to handle both.

Some apps want you to track everything. This one is more about follow through. You plan the week, pick recipes, and the grocery list stays connected to what you chose. Nutrition, calories, and macros are on the recipe page when you want a quick look.

Download our app and keep the week in one place. Weekly meal planner for the plan, recipes for the ideas, grocery list for the store, nutrition facts for when you care. No extra steps, no overthinking, just a week you can follow. Plan this week in minutes!

### 1/5 — AI slop recipes

*2026-07-07, version 0.8*

The recipes are nice sounding but the execution is poor and it is clear that they have been written by AI - if they had actually been developed and trialled by a cook, they would make sense! Random ingredients that are not in the ingredients list, steps of the method missing, plus random spelling mistakes and mis-sense throughout. There are far better meal planning apps and recipe collections that are not as expensive. Don’t bother with this one.

### 1/5 — Required Subscription

*2026-07-05, version 0.8*

It’s a free app to download but you cannot use it unless you pay for a subscription. Many other free recipes apps and sources available.

### 2/5 — Too expensive

*2026-07-03, version 0.8*

Sorry. Just not something I’m willing to budget for at this price.

### 1/5 — Appalling

*2026-06-01, version 0.6*

This is actually the first time ever I’m leaving bad review for anything, but i  honestly can’t believe how ignorant they are. I tried to contact customer service 6 times. By email and other platforms. They replied once on Instagram asking for my details and then completely ignored me. I tried to contact few more times. No reply.  Nothing. I’ve never experienced worse customer service. The amount of recipes in the app is ridiculous and totally not worth the money. I own 2 books and enjoy them, but the app and customer service is a total joke!

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-05-28, version 0.5*

App will charge your for a free trial, they say it’s clearly stated that it’s only for a yearly membership which is a complete lie do not purchase you will not get a refund. Horrible scam for an already horrible app

### 1/5 — PAY WALL

*2026-04-30, version 0.4*

This app has a subscription you are forced to get in order to use the app and so nit worth using.

### 2/5 — Meals

*2026-02-06, version 0.3*

The app is such a great idea and with the shopping lists, meal prep etc it has so much potential. BUT the one thing that is really frustrating me is the meals, most of the meals you find on the website are not on the app. This means constantly flicking between website and app trying to find the meals, instead of them being all in one place. I feel yes 2 star is harsh and I do want to give a higher rating. But until this issue gets resolved I can’t give a higher rating, especially when you are paying that much for a yearly subscription, you aren’t necessarily getting all to offer.

### 5/5 — Best App for Meal Prepping

*2026-02-05, version 0.3*

I used The Good Bite website for meal prepping for many years and my only complaint was accessibility. Using this app makes meal planning a breeze. I especially love that you can generate a weekly shopping list based on your meal plan. This adjusts based on the amount of servings per meal, which is especially useful when meal prepping for more than one person (less waste and less money). Recipes are delicious and something for everyone. I am pescatarian and there are many selections to choose from. I highly recommend this app to anyone trying to reach certain health goals or wants to put less effort and thinking into meal prep.

### 5/5 — Absolute game changer!

*2026-01-22, version 0.2*

This app has saved me so much time and money and the recipes are incredible. The shopping list is so helpful and also makes quick work of eliminating what ingredients I already have, meaning I’m not wasting money buying ingredients “just in case we don’t have them.” 
The recipes are unreal. We ONLY eat TGB dinners, and the breakfasts and snacks are slowly creeping in. It is genuinely unbelievable something can taste so good but also be healthy for you!! We’ve used all the books before but to have an app in this form that offers recipes and meal plans and the shopping list is amazing!

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2026-01-14, version 0.2*

Delicious recipes

Super easy to use 

Has helped me get organised meal prepping, macros and shopping (the shopping list feature is a godsend!)
