Meal Planner
Keep a list of what is in your kitchen. Once a week it plans your dinners so that what spoils first is eaten first, with only what you need to buy, and each day it tells you what is for dinner tonight.
Meal Planner explained 🔰
- It plans your dinners around what is in your kitchen, using first what will spoil first, and tells you each day what to cook tonight.
- You enter up to 60 things in your kitchen, each with a use-by day and how much if you like, who you cook for, 3 to 7 dinners a week, your diet, up to 20 things no dinner may have, and what you like. A photo of your fridge, a shelf or a food receipt can add to the list, and you check what it found before you save.
- Each run writes a new plan when there is none yet, its week is over, or your kitchen or your week changed: dinners for the next 7 days, one a day from today for as many as you asked, each with what it uses from your kitchen and what to buy. Any other day, it tells you tonight's dinner from the plan.
- A recipe on request: Ask for a recipe gives you one dinner for tonight from your saved kitchen, whenever you like. It counts toward the requests your plan allows each day, and stays on this page rather than in the daily email.
- How often: a new or changed kitchen is planned at the next hourly run if your limits allow it. Saving never brings a run sooner than 6 hours after the last one started. After that it runs once a day.
- Run now starts a run by hand, once a day across all your loops, and only while none of them is in the middle of a run. Your loops also share a spending limit; a run it holds back waits for its next turn.
- If 3 runs in a row fail, the loop pauses. Resume starts it again.
- A daily email sums up what your loops found - one email a day, and only on a day one of them found something. It is on until you switch it off - on a loop's page once the loop is part of your plan, or, if your plan includes Loops, on your dashboard.
- What it does not do: judge whether food is fresh, or know what a dish holds. It leaves out anything past the use-by day you gave and any dinner whose words name something on your avoid list - so check each recipe against your diet yourself.
- To stop it, use Remove your kitchen. Its past runs are kept.
