What's for dinner? It's the question that haunts every family. Homie's meal planning helps you answer it before 5pm hits and everyone's hungry.
Family recipe book
Save the recipes your family actually likes. Import them from your favorite websites, or add your own. Build a collection of meals you know will work.
Everyone in the family can add recipes. The kids found something they want to try? They can save it. Grandma's secret sauce? Add it to the family collection.
Plan meals on the calendar
Drag recipes onto days of the week. See what's coming up. Know what you need to buy. Stop the daily "what should we eat" debate.
Planning ahead means fewer last-minute takeout orders and less food waste. You buy what you need because you know what you're making.
Explore curated recipes
Not sure what to cook? Browse hundreds of recipes from well-known recipe websites, curated for families. Filter by meal type, cuisine, diet, or cooking time.
Find something new to try. Add it to your recipe book. Put it on the calendar.
Import from anywhere
Found a great recipe on your favorite food blog? Just paste the link. Homie imports the recipe automatically — ingredients, instructions, everything.
No more bookmarking recipes and losing them. No more scrolling past life stories to find the ingredient list. Just the recipe, saved in your family's collection.
Smart shopping list
When you plan meals, Homie can add the ingredients to your shopping list. Check off what you already have. See what you need to buy.
The shopping list is shared with the whole family. Whoever goes to the store sees everything. No more texting "did we need milk?"
Filter and find
Looking for something quick? Filter by cooking time. Need vegetarian options? Filter by diet. Want Italian tonight? Filter by cuisine.
Tag your own recipes however makes sense for your family. "Kid-approved." "Date night." "Grandma's recipes." Find what you need when you need it.
Share recipes with anyone
Found something great? Share a recipe with friends, neighbors, or extended family. They can view it without needing a Homie account, or add it to their own recipe book if they're Homie users.
