I installed the app and got stuck in. Starting with the Setup tab. I left it pretty much as is except for adding our local supermarkets in the Stores tab.<\/p>\n I then added our menu plan for our evening meals for the week. Breakfast here is pretty much the same thing everyday – cereal or toast, unless I have leftover mashed potato from the night before – then it\u2019s potato scones*. Lunch depends on the day.<\/p>\n To create your meal plan, you tap on your day (so for example today) and you\u2019ll be taken to the meal plan, where you select a meal type (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Snack or create your own) then you add a course. Here you can add a recipe that is already in your list (or you can add a recipe as you go), or select a food. In the example below, I\u2019ve added the recipe for Pumpkin Soup to our recipes.<\/p>\n You can use the plan you\u2019ve made for the day as a template, move or copy the meals to another date and even email the menu plan to someone (for example, your partner). You can also print your weekly or monthly plan out to stick on the fridge\/noticeboard\/wherever.<\/p>\n In the Recipes tab, you can add and edit recipes you use frequently and want to add to future menu plans. You can also use the Import Recipes tab to import from a list of sites. I\u2019m yet to try it to see if I can import my favourite recipes from Taste.com.au (and then I scroll down and see it\u2019s in the list LOL)<\/p>\n The Items tab shows you all items in your pantry and items in recipes that aren\u2019t in your pantry – great for helping you make a shopping list. An awesome feature of the Items tab is you can add prices for each item, add you can add different prices for different stores (cause we all know each shop has their own price) Then there is the Shopping List tab. And if you added prices in your Items list you can get an estimate of what your shopping will cost. Bonus!<\/p>\n Overall, it is a super easy app to use and if you get stuck you can click on the Community tab for tutorials, help, to report issues\/bugs and even request features for future versions. I\u2019ve been using the app for about a month & I love it. I\u2019ve even deleted my other recipe apps so I have it all in one place. You can also sync your data so it is backed up on the menu planning website – and you can make changes to everything except your menu plan online.<\/p>\n Menu Planner app gets<\/p>\n I have Disclaimer – I was given a code for this app so I could do a review. All opinions expressed are my own.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n * Potato Scones (the Scottish way). Mix cold mashed potato with enough plain flour to make a dough. You don\u2019t want it to be too wet or too dry, so it\u2019s personal preference. Divide mixture into handful size amounts. Roll your handful sized ball til about .5cm thick, cut into 4. Menu planning seems to be the thing to do if you want to help yourself save a little $$ and make mealtimes a bit more organised. I\u2019ve been planning our meals for years & when Miss K arrived it made our life so much easier. There are still nights when I look at the plan … Continue reading “Menu Planning”<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[66,95],"class_list":["post-2734","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-general","tag-giveaway","tag-review"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nightwolfsden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2734","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nightwolfsden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nightwolfsden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nightwolfsden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nightwolfsden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2734"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/nightwolfsden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2734\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nightwolfsden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2734"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nightwolfsden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2734"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nightwolfsden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2734"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"AppFeature\"](\"http:\/\/nightwolfsden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/AppFeature_thumb.png\" "\\"AppFeature\\"")
