Weekly Meal Planner & Grocery List Builder: Plan Your Week for Less
Meal planning shouldn’t take longer than cooking dinner. Our free Weekly Meal Planner & Grocery List Builder helps you organize seven days of breakfasts, lunches, and dinners, automatically combines ingredients into one shopping list, and estimates your grocery costs. Choose from budget-friendly meal ideas or add your own recipes, check off what you already have in the pantry, and print or save your plan for later.
Your weekly meals, planned. Your grocery list, done.
Pick meals for seven days, adjust portions, and watch your shopping list build itself. Change ingredient prices to match your store, then print or save the whole plan.
🗓️ Set up your week
Everything starts with a sample menu that you can completely customize.
💡 Example ingredient prices are illustrations, not live grocery prices. The list shows estimated costs that you can edit to reflect what you actually pay. The default recipes each serve two and scale automatically for your household.
🍳 Your 7-day meal calendar
Choose breakfast, lunch and dinner for each day. Repeat meals deliberately to use up ingredients and cut food waste.
💰 Your estimated grocery costs
Costs are summed from your consolidated ingredient list, plus any extra shopping items you add.
🛒 Your automatic grocery list
Repeated ingredients are combined. Check items you’ve already got at home or picked up at the store; adjust estimated prices in the right column.
➕ Add something else
Paper towels, seasonings, a pantry restock — anything not covered by your meals.
📖 Create your own reusable meals
Have a favorite recipe? Add ingredients for one batch, specify how many servings it makes, and we’ll scale it when you add it to your week.
📦 Keep your plan safe
The planner auto-saves locally on this device. Download a backup to move it to another browser or keep a permanent copy.
No account needed. Your meals and grocery prices stay in this browser unless you clear browser storage or use private browsing. Restoring a backup replaces your current plan.

Tip: Check your pantry and freezer before shopping. An automatically generated list is a starting point, not a reason to buy what you already own.
