Cozi Meal Planner & Recipe Box

Simplify how you get dinner on the table.

If your recipes are scattered between printouts, bookmarked pages, app items, and one somehow stuck underneath the pie dish, the Cozi Recipe Box can make it easier to find what you need—and plan dinners around it. Save all of your favorite recipes in one place, discover new favorites, add ingredients to your grocery list with just one touch, and then schedule meals in your shared family calendar app.

If you’re looking for a family meal planner, try out Cozi Meal Planner—you can find it in the Recipes or Meals tab.

Schedule meals by the days of the week to avoid a last-minute dinner decision. Everyone in the family can see the meal plan in the Cozi shared calendar app, so you won’t hear any more questions about what’s for dinner.

You can schedule a meal while looking at a recipe: Just click the calendar icon (iOS) or the three dots (Android) to add it to breakfast, lunch, snack, or dinner. Or you can schedule meals from the Meal Planner (also available on the Recipes or Meals tab). With the Meal Planner, you can schedule a whole week of dinners, using the recipes you stored in your recipe box.
