A new way to plan your week
Looking for a Mealime alternative?
Mealime says it will shut down on October 21, 2026. My Meal Planning gives you another way to plan dinners, build a grocery list, and keep your own recipes together.
My Meal Planning does not transfer your Mealime account or automatically bring over its recipes.
What is happening to Mealime?
Mealime’s team says its recipes will continue in Meals Hub, available through Albertsons Companies store apps and websites. If keeping access to those recipes is your priority, read Mealime’s announcement and next steps.
Announcement checked October 1, 2026. My Meal Planning is a separate service.
Your recipes. Your week. Your grocery list.
Keep your recipes together
Type recipes you want to keep. Add recipes from website links. Bring in recipes from photos or pasted text, with access and recipe-help limits depending on your plan. You can also bring in supported recipe-app export files.
Plan your dinners
Choose meals yourself. Or use Fill dinners to pick from your saved dinner recipes marked Published (ready to plan). It fills open dinner nights from today onward and leaves your existing meals and notes in place. If you have too few recipes, some nights stay empty.
Shop from your plan
Your planned meals feed your grocery list. Use My Meal Planning in a browser on your phone or computer.
How the approach differs
Mealime describes choosing weekly meals from its recipe collection, with options for dietary preferences. My Meal Planning starts with the recipes you save: your collection, then your meal plan, then your grocery list.
You choose what goes into that collection and can edit ingredients and directions. Fill dinners chooses from recipes already saved; it does not create new recipes or copy Mealime’s meal recommendations.

Start with a few dinners you know
- Create a free account.
- Add a few recipes you have the right to keep. Check each recipe before saving it.
- Choose dinners for the week, then open your grocery list.
There is no dedicated Mealime collection importer. A publicly accessible recipe page may work with website import; a Mealime link is not guaranteed to work. For an individual recipe you can access and have the right to save, a photo or copied text may be an option on your plan. These tools do not sign in to Mealime or retrieve your account.
Try it free. Pay yearly for more.
The free plan is for one person, with up to 10 saved recipes, weekly meal planning, and a grocery list. It is a free plan, not a timed trial.
The paid subscription costs $39.99 per year. It includes:
- No recipe-count limit
- Up to 10 household members
- 2 GB of recipe photo storage
- 300 recipe-help uses a month, shared by the household
It renews automatically until you cancel.
