Get your week back, step by step
-
Find Mealime’s recipes in Meals Hub
Open an Albertsons Companies store app, like Safeway, Albertsons, Vons or Jewel-Osco, and tap More, then Tools & services, then Meals Hub. On the web, pick a local store first.
-
Write down your family’s favourites
Your Mealime plans and lists are gone, so jot down the dinners you made most. Four or five is plenty to start.
-
Pick a new home for your week
Choose an app that plans the week and writes the grocery list for you.
-
Set up your first week
In Mellowpan, say what the week needs, like “quick dinners, no fish”. Bring in your favourites from a link, a photo or your voice, and share the plan with everyone at home.
A plan that bends when life does.
Save recipes from anywhere, plan the week in a sentence with no calendar to fall behind on, and shop from one shared list everyone at home can use. Then cook hands-free, with a timer for every timed step.
