GBI love the recipes and being able to… I love the recipes and being able to access them easily. I was not dedicated enough to set up meal plans, and decided to opt out. Should I become more focused on planning meals, I’ll definitely renew.

GBMostly very good stuff Mostly very good stuff, very well done. However, some recipes call for "shredded beef" or similar, without factoring in cook the beef. Or the recipe provides a marinade but not the meat to marinade in it (which means you have to put another recipe in place to make sure you also buy the meat. Also, frequently, the recipe proportions are wayyyyy off. Often buy way too much food, even after I cut things in half, especially produce quantities. There are also some recipes where things just don't work, like the raspberry scones where one egg is supposed to be used as a glaze, but the mixture at that point in the recipe is too soft to apply a glaze to. Lastly, it can be finicky to add recipes to the plan. but generally a good tool we continue to use every week.

GBFantastic app and delicious recipes I love Real Plans!! It saves me SO much time planning out recipes for the week; actually, I let the app do all the heavy lifting because all of the recipes it's added to my weekly meal plans so far have been delicious and easy. Huge time saver and sanity saver.

GBNot worth it for me at this time I found the lowest-tier professional plan too expensive for 1-2 clients. It just didn’t make sense for me, especially when the recipes didn’t show much variation when certain dietary filters, like Paleo, were applied. A client also told me she was having trouble with the shopping list feature in the app. Great idea overall, but I think execution could be improved, along with affordability for just-starting-out professionals.

GBIncredibly versatile I am impressed with how many different dietary styles are accommodated by Real Plans. I think the common denominator is “real” food. It’s whole foods, in whatever style you choose. I myself have used the Paleo, Vegan, Classic, and GAPS styles. Real Plans is very versatile and perfect for our family. There are so many customization and automated options that it has taken me a long time to utilize them all. Basically, if you do something specific with your meal planning (like pancake Saturday mornings), there are settings to automate that. Pretty awesome. The only complaint I have is that I love to pre-plan a month’s meals at a time, but you can only do three weeks at a time, and it’s a bit difficult to do so because the app likes to reset you to the current week. Also, as I go along and want to tweak my settings, usually any tweaking requires you to erase all future planned meals, which keeps me from changing things to accommodate our schedule better. But overall, best meal planning app I’ve ever used. You can also upload and enter your own recipes or online recipes. Time consuming, but helpful for planning family favorites.
