Never answer "what's for dinner" again.

A few quick questions, and you walk away with a whole week of dinners that fit the nights you're actually home — plus one grocery list you tap through at the store.

Here's what you end up with:

Step 1 of 6

Your family

Just the basics, so portions and picky-eater notes come out right.

How many people are you feeding?

Your kids (add one row per kid)

Your shopping

Keeps the plan inside your budget and your usual store.

Weekly grocery budget

Your grocery store

Who cooks, and when?

Meals get matched to the nights someone's home. Empty nights become leftovers or the slow cooker — on purpose.

Which nights are you home in time to cook? (tap the ones that apply)

Anyone else who cooks? (optional — leave blank if it's just you)

How you cook

Be honest about the time. A plan built for 45 minutes you don't have is the one that falls apart by Tuesday.

On a night you cook, how many minutes do you realistically have? (be honest, not hopeful)

What do you actually cook with? (tap all that apply)

If you have a slow cooker, it can handle the nights nobody is home.

What do you love?

The meals worth repeating. This is where the plan stops feeling generic and starts feeling like yours.

Foods you always love

Anything to keep out?

Two different lists — one's just preference, one's non-negotiable.

Foods you won't eat (just preferences)

Allergies and hard no's (write "none" if there aren't any)

Different from the line above. That one's preference — this one's non-negotiable, and every meal is built around it.
