You don’t need another list of recipe ideas.

Most households already have meals they come back to: fajitas, pasta, curry, pizza, a roast, something quick for Thursday.

Add a meal once and it stays in your saved meals. Next time you plan, find it and put it straight on a day.

How the planner works

Start with a few regular meals, or skip that step and add them as you plan.

  1. 1

    Choose your dates

    Start with one week, choose a longer plan, or enter your own dates.

  2. 2

    Add your regular meals

    Enter a few meal names to start your library, or skip and add them as you plan.

  3. 3

    Put meals on days

    Choose a saved meal and then a day, or choose an empty day and type a meal.

  4. 4

    Move things around

    Drag on desktop, or open a meal and choose another day on any device.

  5. 5

    Print your plan

    Print continuously, a week per page or four weeks per page. Add recipe QR codes if useful.

Keep the meals you come back to.

Add a meal to a day once and MealPlannerTool.com remembers it.

Next time, start typing its name and choose it from your saved meals. If you saved a recipe link, that comes back too.

Change the plan without rewriting it.

Wednesday’s meal needs to move to Friday? Drag it across.

If Friday already has a meal, MealPlannerTool.com swaps the two. On a phone, choose the meal and then choose its new day.

Put the plan where everyone can see it.

Print one week, four weeks or your whole plan.

If a meal has a recipe link, MealPlannerTool.com can print a QR code beside it. Scan the code from the fridge when you need the recipe.
