Fantastic Site! I love the way all of the recipes are organized, especially within the meal plan options which include beautiful pictures of every meal. This feature just makes the recipes so very easy to choose from! In addition, the meal plan options are simple with really ingenious categories. There are just handful to choose from, so it’s an easy choice to make, but somehow there is a meal plan for almost anyone’s taste and dietary preference. It’s just so easy to navigate the site; and so beautifully designed! I love the fact that I can quickly pick a meal and add only the ingredients I need for that meal to my grocery list! Now i have all of my meals, with pictures included, organized and easily found so I no longer have to worry about meal planning whatsoever! All of the hard work is taken care of and I could choose a new meal to prepare every single day. No more getting stuck making the same meals over and over again! Thank you for this fantastic app! Truly brilliant!

Would be 5 stars but…

I would rate this app with 5 stars but it has a couple annoying flaws. First, the extremely useful “I don’t eat” feature doesn’t actually work. Despite adding a few ingredients to that list in my profile, the daily recipes continue not just to include those ingredients, but to feature them as the main element to the recipe(s). It wouldn’t be a problem except with only 3 recipes offered per day, it becomes problematic when 2 of them regularly include an unwanted ingredient. Second, the app doesn’t seem to sync completely between devices even though I use the same login. For example, on my iPad it shows all 5 of the recipe collections I’ve made but on my phone it only shows 3, and the chosen meal plan doesn’t show up on both devices either.That said, I absolutely love the simplicity of the app (the parts that work) and the recipe layouts and photos. It’s really great that there is a portion calculator which automatically changes the ingredient quantities to match the number of portions wanted. I also really enjoy the variety of recipes offered. Although my husband and I are omnivores, I like being able to plan out the week with a majority of vegetarian dishes so I can limit our meat consumption.

Ahoy! Thank you for your great feedback! As a note: The feature "I don't eat that" refers to the recipes in the weekly plan. The daily and weekly recipes cannot be individually adjusted. I will definitely discuss your request with the team. However, since we are a small team, I ask for a little patience. 💙Have a nice day!Best wishesyour kptns 😇
Great app for busy people who want honest homemade food!

This app is one of my favorite apps when it comes to introducing easy to make recipes from mostly scratch ingredients. The photography makes this cooking app feel like a visual treat when you are looking at what you can learn to create next. Here is what I love about the app:1. Limits the recipes you see per day and week so you don’t spend too much time scrolling through the recipes just to feel overwhelmed. 2. The photography is beautiful and captivating.3. The recipes are easy and mostly from scratch. Easy enough for a beginner and complex enough to keep a home expert fresh on technique and beautiful recipes. 4. The ability to automatically calculate the amount of ingredients needed within the app makes grocery shopping way easier. 5. Gathering your favorite recipes is easy to make into a weekly plan as well! I highly recommend this app to anyone but especially to those who want to improve their cooking skills or to add beautiful meals to their cooking library.

I love how we can put in our preferences and the app automatically ignores recipes with things we don’t like. I also really appreciate the ad ingredients to shopping list option, it makes it a lot easier to make a list and see what I still need. This app is amazing!!! I subscribed to the meal plan and I have NO REGRETS. My LIFE IS REVOLUTIONIZED. I’m not kidding. For one thing you can test it for a week! It has made me feel a lot healthier all with tasty recipes. I definitely recommend this app to anyone who needs that push towards a healthier lifestyle.

Ahoy Captain!
- In this update, we’ve improved one of your favorite features: finding recipes with the ingredients already in your fridge. Previously, we only showed recipes that used every ingredient you selected, which could make it tricky to find a match. Now, you’ll also see recipes that use some of them. More inspiration, more cooking, less food waste.
- We’ve also moved our brand-new filters directly to the Search tab, just below the search bar. You can now start filtering before entering a search. Happy filtering! And for everyone missing the randomized recipe order: it’s on our radar, so stay tuned a little longer.
- We also fixed an issue that caused the app to freeze for some users when signing in to an existing account, and added a few small visual improvements for smoother sailing.
