Our Meal Planner automatically selects recipes according to your settings, but we know sometimes you want to add a recipe to the plan yourself.
If you are using the mobile app, you will follow the steps below. If you are using the website, click here.
Add a recipe to your meal planner

- Scroll to the day where you want to add a recipe
- Click the meal time to which you would like to add a recipe
- Click Add new recipe
- Select a recipe you would like to add using one of the following methods, and then click the + on the recipe image to select it
- Browse recipes by scrolling through the suggestions
