Need Help Planning Meals?

A new website Tasty Planner (thanks Lifehacker) is an innovative way to plan your meals for the coming weeks. There is an entire database of recipes to search through and you can add your favorites to the Recipe Box as you search. From there you can plan your meals using the Meal Calendar for the upcoming weeks. Pretty simple, right? Here’s where it gets interesting.

While you build your meal calendar from your favorite recipes, a grocery list is being created for all the ingredients you need to make those meals. The grocery list itself is very flexible as you can add items that you need that are not required for the recipe, re-order the list and mark items off if you already have them ‘in stock’.

When you are done planning your meals, you can print the grocery list and head to the store. Or you can take your electronic list with you with the specially formatted website for your iPhone! Better yet, if you have a home delivery service like Peapod as we discussed in “Home Work from the Road” you can shop from the comfort of your own home!
