Easy to use app with a lot of useful information, simple recipes, and user-friendly interface. Love the checklist and feeding guide. The meal plan can be a bit frustrating. Auto sets to Spring-Summer every time the app opens. Its not a deal breaker but a few times I've purchased the wrong thing when I was planning another meal. I do wish I could select multiple days and generate a shopping list. I have to export recipes into another app to make my shopping lists. Overall I'm enjoying the app.

This app is very user friendly and has so many great resources. The guides were really helpful when first starting out to ease anxiety. The guides also allow you to work through all the top allergens even giving little icons to indicate what is in a recipe, how it's a risk, and what to watch for. Recipes are simple to follow and haven't found a bad one yet! Most we were able to tweak for the whole family to eat and every one loves them. Highly recommend!

Nice app, easy to use, but the recipes are unreliable. I paid for this app based on the meal plan option. The recipes sometimes come out great, sometimes don't work at all. I have had to double cooking times several times, there seem to be vital steps missing (like covering a pan), and although they offer alternatives for food allergies, the recipes do not always work with the suggested substitutions. Good for a starting point, but I wouldn't pay for it again.
