Of course, you’ll still have to pay for your groceries!

Are there Italian/Asian/30 minutes or less recipes?

Yes… and more 😊 The best way to explore these recipes is to use the filter feature on the ‘Select Recipes’ page. We have over 500 recipes that span across multiple recipe categories.
We are always improving and adding to our recipe collection so stay tuned for more dietary options.

Is membership required in order to create a meal plan/shop?

Can I view by category like breakfast, brunch, dinner?

Yes! You can find those categories easily by filtering on the ‘Select Recipes' page.

My grocery list includes every ingredient in the recipes, including staples I already have like flour, spices, and seasonings. Is there a way to edit my grocery list to remove staples?

If you choose to shop in-store, you can check off items to indicate that you already have them. Unfortunately you are not able to remove these items completely at this time. However, we’re also looking to improve our service!
