What RecipesMD does

  • Ontario prices

    Costs come from Statistics Canada monthly average retail prices for Ontario. Items the table doesn't cover use a labelled estimate. We never call them live prices.

  • A plan that fits your budget

    Tell us how many people, how many nights and your weekly dinner budget. If nothing fits, we show the cheapest plan and how far over it is, rather than hiding it.

  • Shared ingredients

    The planner favours dinners that share ingredients, so the bag of carrots or the tray of chicken gets used up across the week.

  • One grocery list

    Everything for the week in one list, grouped by aisle and rounded up to real store pack sizes. Tick off what's already in your pantry.

  • Cook mode

    Step-by-step view with timers and scaling for your household size.

  • Free, no account

    Your plan lives in its share link. There is nothing to sign up for.

What we're upfront about

  • Recipes are labelled “draft · not yet kitchen-tested” until someone has actually cooked them.
  • Photos are Creative Commons pictures of a similar dish, credited on each recipe. They are not our own cooking.
  • Prices are Ontario averages, not a quote from your store.
  • Anything sponsored is labelled “Sponsored”, and a sponsor can't change your budget or diet filters.
  • RecipesMD can't import your Mealime saved recipes or plans.

Prices: Statistics Canada, Table 18-10-0245-01, monthly average retail prices (Ontario), used under the Statistics Canada Open Licence. RecipesMD is not affiliated with Mealime or Albertsons Companies.
