Family meal planner
The meal planner that starts with your pantry.
Stop planning meals around recipes you have to shop for. My Kitchen Host suggests family meals from what you already have, sized for your family and safe for your allergies, and only adds the missing bits to your list.
How pantry-first meal planning works
Meals built from what you have
Ask for ideas and the planner starts from your current pantry, fridge and freezer, so tonight's dinner uses the chicken before it expires instead of adding another shopping trip.
Family size and allergies, set once
Tell it you cook for four and that someone is free from peanuts. Every suggestion is scaled and kept allergy-safe, including hidden ingredients like peanut oil. Cooking for guests? Adjust it for just that meal.
A rolling 7-day calendar
Breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks on one simple week view that the whole family shares and sees update instantly.
See what's in stock before you cook
Each planned meal shows which ingredients you already have and which are missing. Missing items go to the shopping list in one tap.
Your family cookbook
Save the recipes you actually cook, or snap a photo of a recipe card or cookbook page and it's added for you. Plan them again any week.
Mark as cooked, stock updates
When dinner is done, choose which ingredients you used and the pantry updates itself. Nothing is restocked without your say.
Meal planner questions
Is this meal planner free?
Yes. Every household gets 75 AI actions each month, such as meal ideas or a photo scan.
How is it different from other meal planning apps?
Most planners start with recipes and hand you a long shopping list. This one starts with the food already in your kitchen and only lists what's missing.
Can it handle food allergies?
Yes. Allergies saved in your Kitchen Profile are treated as strict rules for every suggestion. Always double-check labels for severe allergies.
Can the whole family plan together?
Yes. Everyone in the household sees the same calendar, and meals show who planned them.
