WeeklyWhisk - Plan your meals, simplify your week. Stop staring into the fridge wondering what's for dinner. WeeklyWhisk plans your entire week of breakfast, lunch, and dinner in seconds, then turns the plan into an aisle-organized shopping list and a stack of beautiful, scalable recipes ready to cook. A whole week of meals in seconds Tell us your tastes, dietary needs, allergies, budget, and how much time you have for cooking. WeeklyWhisk builds a balanced 7-day plan around all of it, with breakfast, lunch, and dinner thoughtfully chosen so the week feels varied, not repetitive. Shopping, done for you Every ingredient from your weekly plan flows into one smart shopping list, automatically grouped by grocery aisle. Produce, meat, dairy, bakery, pantry, and more. One pass through the store covers the whole week. Recipes that actually fit your life Every recipe scales instantly to 1, 2, or 4 servings with one tap, so quantities always match your household. Each recipe shows full nutrition per serving, prep and cook times, difficulty, and a cost-per-serving estimate. Step-by-step instructions are clear and easy to follow. Want something sweet? The new pantry dessert finder asks what you have on hand, then suggests a dessert you can actually make. 50 recipes built from common pantry staples like flour, sugar, butter, eggs, oats, peanut butter, bananas, chocolate chips, and more. Mug cakes, brownies, pancakes, no-bake bites, classic cookies, and more. Share recipes with anyone Tap the share button on any recipe to generate a beautifully designed, magazine-style PDF recipe card. AirDrop it, text it, or email it to whoever cooks with you. Quantities scale to whatever serving size you picked. Built around your preferences Mark recipes as favorites or dislikes and your future plans adapt. Allergens and dietary categories like vegetarian, gluten-free, and dairy-free are first-class filters, applied across every plan. Plan together Link with a partner or family member to share one meal plan and shopping list across both phones. No more duplicate trips or "did you grab the eggs" texts. Don't love a meal? Swap it. Any meal in your week can be swapped for a fresh suggestion in seconds, without rebuilding the whole plan. Designed like a cookbook Warm Montserrat and Open Sans typography, an inviting orange and teal palette, and a calm, focused layout that makes the whole experience feel like a printed cookbook rather than another utility app. Free to start Plan your first week free. Upgrade to Premium for unlimited weekly plans, unlimited swaps, partner sharing, and full access to every dietary preference. Cancel anytime in App Store Settings. Whether you're feeding yourself, a couple, or a busy family, WeeklyWhisk turns "what's for dinner?" into a solved problem and gives you a calm, well-fed week.
