Is there a way to do meal planning on here or as an app that works with MFP? I would like to seamlessly be able to plan my meals, get a grocery list and automatically have those calories logged. (Am I dreaming too big?)

    That is exactly what I'd like is to select a date range and get a list of things I may need to buy so I could check what I already had and then go to store.

    It seems a grocery list should be attached to the meal plan for a week.

    I do it in reverse. I look at the supermarket fliers, pick a protein, plan a meal, and add anything else I might need to go with it to the list.

    I also plan to get several meals out of one cooking. For example, we grilled 2.25 pounds of chicken the other night and had entrée salads. I'll get lunches for me for several days out of that, plus another meal for the two of us. Starch and veg TBD from what I have on hand as I have all my staples.
