“This is by far the best meal planning app I have ever used. Worth every penny. Uploading recipes could not be easier. I tag all the easy weekday meals with a “ weekday” tag. When I’m in a rut and don’t know what to cook I just filter by that tag and am always inspired with recipes for the week. The menus feature is pretty cool as well. Love love love!”
