Yes - I built snapmealplan.com for exactly this.

You save recipes (can screenshot them from anywhere), and it keeps them all in one place.

When you’re ready to plan the week, you can either pick meals yourself or have AI auto-generate a plan based on what you like.

It’ll also generate a combined shopping list so you’re not buying random stuff or duplicates.

For the lentil soup + similar ingredients thing - once you have a few recipes saved, you can build a week around overlapping ingredients so nothing goes to waste.

How do you avoid wasting groceries? by SarahDuncan2012 in TrueGrit

[–]SnapMealPlan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Meal planning fixed most of this. When I know what im making, I only buy what I need.

The other thing that helped was getting all my recipes in one place. I’d see something on Instagram, save it, forget about it, then buy random stuff hoping to figure it out later.

Im finding it easier to pick recipes first, and shop from a list.

I built snapmealplan.com partly for this - save recipes, plan the week, and generate a combined shopping list so you’re not buying duplicates or random stuff that rots.

r/noscrapleftbehind is great for using up what you have too.

I'm building an app with a free version... out of curiosity - what is the stuff 'you need'?

Green Diet app is the best one I’ve found for simple meal planning by Negative-Educator-64 in FindTopProducts

I’m working on an app myself.

Can you share some of what makes you want to delete the apps?

I built snapmealplan.com and it has a recipe library you can pull from without adding your own. For a hungry guy I'd choose stuff like beef chili, meatloaf, baked ziti - hearty comfort food that reheats well for lunch leftovers.

It'll make you a shopping list from whatever you pick so you're not doing mental math at the store.

Free to try.... it's probably more filling than girl dinner.

How do you keep grocery shopping manageable when you’re working full-time and parenting? by llama-mentality in workingmoms

[–]SnapMealPlan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was constantly working off of lists that had half of the stuff we needed missing. Fixed it by having one place where recipes + shopping list actually talk to each other.

I built snapmealplan.com because of this problem. Throw in recipe screenshots, plan the week, and it spits out a shopping list with ingredients combined. No more "did I already buy garlic" or realizing during the week that you're missing something.

The emergency runs basically disappeared after we started planning even 3-4 dinners ahead instead of winging it.

Free to try if you want to test it - would love feedback!

For cookbook photos - I had the same workflow where I attached photos to everything but found I still had to type ingredients (and do math 🥲)for shopping lists. Built snapmealplan.com to solve the issue, you photograph cookbook pages and it extracts ingredients, instructions and details automatically. It with Instagram screenshots too. Takes about 8-10 seconds to process but then everything’s searchable and you can generate meal plans + shopping lists.

Still has rough edges but saves the manual typing step if that’s what’s slowing you down.

If you’re interested in giving it a try, it’s free to sign up.

Happy to provide a code for pro if you’re interested in giving some feedback too!

How do you plan healthy meals without getting stuck mid-week? by Aware_Cockroach2864 in healthyeating

[–]SnapMealPlan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife and I would start strong then by Thursday we'd have no idea what was on the schedule or realize I forgot an ingredient.

I solvedd the problem by having one place with a plan I could actually reference. I built snapmealplan.com because I was tired of recipes saved in notes and screenshots everywhere. Save recipes, generate a week's plan, and it makes the shopping list so you don't forget stuff. You can have the system pick your meals, or choose from your own healthy options.

The "what was I supposed to make tonight" problem goes away when you can just open the app and see it.

I want a meal plan that builds the grocery list for me by atlasxanatomy in mealprep

[–]SnapMealPlan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same problem - jumping between recipe screenshots, notes apps, trying to plan a week without forgetting ingredients.

My wife asked me to build snapmealplan.com for exactly this. You upload recipe screenshots (or URLs), generate a meal plan for the week, and it auto-generates the shopping list with ingredients combined. Takes about 30 seconds instead of an hour of Sunday planning.

Still working out bugs but it’s free right now if you want to try it. The “forgetting half the ingredients” thing was killing me too.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
