Meal Planner: Generate a Plan

I would love if we could generate a meal plan for the entire week based on the recipes we have saved already. It'd be even better if you could generate a plan based on different parameters, such as only include recipes within specified nutrition goals (IE minimum protein, max/min total calories, etc) or like only recipes within a specific cookbook/collection, specific tags, etc. An option to "shuffle" recipes within those same parameters, and then the ability to "save" your selections once you're okay with what's generated. It'd be cool if the meal planner had differentiations between courses, too, to make it a bit simpler to look at.

    The feature is now implemented. I have been working on this for a long time. It is still in early beta, so please let me know what you think!

    Thank you again for your feedback. If you encounter any issues or have additional feedback, please create a new post.

    More meals

    I take two collations a day, I wonder if there is a way to generate two of them in a daily menu ?

      Hi Johanna /, do you want to generate a meal plan automatically, or do you have a specific use case in mind? I would like to learn more about your request. Best, Jan
