Family meal planning app

Plan family meals together, then shop from one list

Share the recipes your household loves, decide breakfast, lunch, and dinner for the week, and generate a grocery list from the plan. When meals change, RecipeRun keeps the list aligned with what you now intend to cook.

Planning solo or together? The meal planner works for an individual household plan. Sharing it between separate family accounts requires a Pro Family Group.

A family workflow, not another calendar

Decide the meals once, then carry the plan through to shopping

RecipeRun connects the recipe collection, weekly planner, and grocery list so the family is not maintaining three separate versions of the same decision.

  1. RecipeRun recipe collection used for family meal planning
    Decide01

    Start with shared family recipes

    Keep the reliable favourites and new ideas in one recipe collection, ready for anyone in the Family Group to use when planning the week.

  2. RecipeRun weekly planner with breakfast, lunch, and dinner
    Plan02

    Fill breakfast, lunch, and dinner

    Plan all three meals or only the slots that matter. A shared weekly view helps everyone know what is coming without another group-chat question.

  3. RecipeRun grocery list generated from a weekly family meal plan

    Turn the week into one grocery list

    Generate the ingredients from the meals you chose, combine repeated items, and give the household one list to use at the shops.

RecipeRun Family Group where household members share the weekly meal plan

Everyone has their own place

Separate accounts, one household plan

Invite family members to a Pro Family Group with a code. They sign in with their own account and can use the shared recipes, weekly plan, and grocery list instead of relying on one person's phone or login.

When plans change, update the week and keep the generated grocery list aligned with the meals the household now intends to cook.

Built for a week that changes

Plan enough to feel organised, without locking the family in

Use the slots you need

Plan breakfast, lunch, and dinner across the week, or focus only on the evening meals that need a decision.

Change the plan when life does

Swap or remove meals as the week changes, then keep the generated grocery list aligned with the updated plan.

Take one list to the shops

Combine planned ingredients, share the list with the household, and tick items off together during the grocery run.
