Make it Original!
Next, we reminded you that a fun way to keep your meal plans original is to dig into those old recipe books and find some “secret” family recipes!

If you’re trying to waste less food, stick to a budget, or simply find something new, the filter and sorting options can help you find the perfect recipe every time!

- We added the option to bulk edit friend recipes (queue and rate).
- We added bulk editing to the Friends, Challenges, and Queue tabs.
- We made UX improvements to more clearly show that you’re in “bulk editing mode” for the Cook and Shop tabs.
- We also added the Random Recipe button to the website Recipe Book search and filter options!
- We fixed a bug that prevented recipes from being sorted properly when the “Times Planned” filter was applied.
- We fixed a bug causing comma-separated values in ingredients to round improperly.

It took a bit of time investment to get myself set up and learning the app initially, but now I’m able to plan a week of meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks) in a few minutes. I think I’ve cut my meal planning time in half and my grocery bill by about $100 a week. My husband does the shopping and knows exactly what to buy. No more food waste! Thank you! I hope you all keep going for a long time.
If you’re looking for a way store recipes, plan meals and save time buying groceries, please start using plan to eat. I also use the desktop version and printouts of recipes, menus and shopping lists. The whole program is very versatile and so worth the subscription in the time and effort it has saved me with meal planning.
