A week of meals involves more than choosing recipes. There are the meals you meant to try, the nights when everyone is busy, and the ingredients that need to make it onto a shopping list. Fameally brings those parts of the week together.

Fameally is developed by ENVentures LTD. This introduction explains the app’s existing workflow and how the pieces fit together.

Save meals you want to make again

Keep your meals and recipes in Fameally so that useful ideas are there when you need them. A collection of familiar dinners gives you somewhere to start, instead of trying to remember what worked last week.

Make a plan that fits your week

Put meals into your weekly plan. Think about the evenings you have time to cook and the ones that need something easy. When plans change, you can adjust the week rather than start again.

The meal-saving and planning features connect the meals you keep with the week you’re organising.

Turn the plan into a shopping list

Fameally generates a shopping list from your planned meals. Check what you already have and add the other essentials your household needs before you shop.

For a practical walkthrough of the routine, read how to turn a meal plan into a food shopping list.

Keep the household involved

With household sharing, meals, plans and shopping lists can be shared with the people you live with. It gives everyone a way to take part in planning and shopping, whether one person cooks or you share the job.

See how household sharing works and check the current plans for the access that suits you.

Start with one ordinary week

You don’t need a perfect routine to get started. Save a few meals you enjoy, plan around the week you actually have, then review your list before heading to the shop.

Fameally is available for iPhone, iPad and Android. If paper suits you better for now, our free weekly dinner planner is ready to print, with no account required.
