Mindful Menu 4+

I have seriously downloaded EVERY app possible, in my mind I wanted recipes, that automatically add to a grocery list so I can shop with ease and reference back to the recipe easily when I want to make it, (lets be honest, I work full time, I run 5 nights a week with kids, sports, church, etc. and who has the time to sit down and really make sure our meals are wholesome) NOTHING really worked for me, I was frustrated and just wanted meal planning to be easier.... MY SAVING GRACE!!!! This is seriously amazing! Pick your recipe, add to meal plan, get groceries and MAGIC! The best part.... IT’S ALL HEALTHY WHOLESOME MEALS! It’s not a diet, it’s meals my kids eat!! Takes the worry about of making sure the kids (and myself) get what our bodies actually need!! And nobody is bored of eating the same thing over and over. The part that really gets me, is this app was made by a couple of Minnesota Moms well and diversely educated in health, truly doing this from their hearts to help other moms, keeping in mind the time and money that can go into healthy eating. I LOVE THAT!! ❤️

This app has been an awesome addition to my meal planning. It takes the guesswork out & literally spells it out for you which is just fantastic. The ingredients are simple & most of the time you already have a lot of what’s needed & the recipes are super easy to follow.

Two things:
1. We have been blessed with dairy restrictions in our house for our kiddos. Most of the meals call for dairy- usually cheese. This makes it incredibly hard to consistently use the app for meal ideas if everything is dairy based.
2. I would like to see the total ingredients needed on the shopping list rather than individually listing them per recipe. It would make grocery shopping slightly easier. Also, in the tips you often times give some great side dishes ideas- it would be really nice to have those part of the recipes/shopping lists also. Sometimes I go to make my recipes & forget it had a tip for side dish & I don’t always have all the ingredients for that since it wasn’t in the shopping list.

Overall, this has been a totally game changer in my house! My husband knows what’s for supper & you truly cannot heat the price of the app!

I love so many things about this App! The search feature is amazing! If you are in the mood for chicken search it and up pops tons of recipes to choose from. Same is true with vegan, beef, pork and seafood options. I love how it makes meal planning so simple each week. And based off of my meals I choose it creates a shopping list for those meals that is sorted by categories in the stores. As well as allowing me to add any other things I might need for the week. It also provides a prep list where I can prep things ahead of time to make my week run more smoothly.
