What they did
1) Open Meals You Love, import favorite recipes, and supply household tastes and dietary preferences. A supported Kroger or Instacart account is needed for the grocery handoff. 2) Generate a weekly plan that combines those recipes with AI suggestions. Use Preferences & Requests to specify constraints such as protein choices. 3) Review the plan; request replacements or use customize with instructions on individual recipes until the meals fit. 4) Send the plan's groceries to the connected Kroger or Instacart cart for ordering. For an on-hand-only meal instead, enter pantry ingredients in Quick Bites and generate a recipe without the grocery handoff.
How it went
The creator says his wife generally liked the recipes, adding one or two AI suggestions among familiar meals. She often requested replacements or customizations.
Worth knowing
Other testers reported slow generation and ignored ingredient constraints. The creator acknowledged those issues; inspect the plan before ordering.
