    I was sorely disappointed in the meal planner - it really only wanted me to have TWO meals for the whole week (eating leftovers several days.)

    I was hoping that we could put our own recipes in this, and it could take the place of the meal planning app that I use (plantoeat). But, you HAVE to follow the recipes it gives - I DON'T do rice, I DON'T do breads, etc. Hard to get it to have a recipe I can use. I'm so sorry I paid for the year for this this worthless feature!

    Sorry you're having trouble with the feature. If I could offer a few suggestions;

    • Make sure you specify you don't eat rice or bread during the "dislikes" portion of the meal planner setup so it doesn't suggest that to you. You can update this via the cogwheel under "Dislikes".
    • Your planner is suggesting you do so many leftovers because of choices you made during setup. Again, under the cogwheel go to Leftovers and make sure you have the actual number of different recipes you want to cook set set.
