We have both iPhone and Android apps, both of which closely mirror the desktop version of Real Plans.

You can modify your meal plan, access the recipe box, and check off ingredients as you shop.

For Windows users, we have a lightweight version of Real Plans that works on your phone’s browser.

Real Planning tip number one: be realistic about how often you’ll cook. Time in the kitchen depends on how many recipes you’re game to prep.

In Real Plans settings, you can specify how many breakfasts, lunches, and dinners you’d like included each week.

You can always filter for “simple recipes.”

Batch cooking, yummy leftovers and the occasional cooking holiday (ahem, takeout + wine) encouraged.

Real Plans is used globally and costs of food vary greatly country to country, state to state. That said, we love happy bellies and happy wallets.

We’ve built a pricing filter that allows you to choose recipes based on cost and have a recipe tag for “budget meals.”

Savvy Real Planners find they save money by selecting a realistic number of meals they’ll cook in a week and because ingredients map to a specific recipe, food actually gets cooked (and gobbled).

Less food waste equals less money wasted.

Our Facebook group has some pretty clutch budget-tips and a boatload of ideas for swapping out pricey ingredients.

Yes. At checkout, you will be asked to provide a recipient email address and gift message.

Yes. Allergies were one of the reasons we created Real Plans—they can throw a real wrench in everyday cooking. You can remove any food group you’re allergic to (or just don’t like) in the settings tab.

Yes, you can plan your ideal week on the My Schedule page. You can choose exactly which days and meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner, extras)  you’d like recipes scheduled for.

All recipes are catalogued by season. Real Plans only picks recipes based on the season where you live—if you’re soaking up sun in Melbourne while someone else is shoveling snow in Boston, we’ve got your back.

Each recipe has nutritional information on the recipe card. You can read it just like any other nutritional label— calories, carbohydrates, fats, etc. in each serving.
