# Does CookBook have a meal planner?

| **Quick answer:** Yes! CookBook includes a built-in meal planner where you can drag any recipe onto a day (or multiple days), pick your serving sizes, and generate an interactive shopping list in a tap.

# What you can do with the planner

* **Day, week, or month view** – see your whole schedule at a glance.
* **Multiple meal slots** - add breakfast, lunch, dinner (and snacks) to any day
* **Custom servings** – bump portions up or down, ingredient amounts adjust automatically.
* **Daily macro calculator** – shows calories, carbs, protein, and fat for one serving of each planned meal, so you can hit your nutrition targets.
* **Instant shopping list** – generate a list from planned meals and get ingredients sorted by aisle.
* **Add notes or meals without a recipe** – type “Leftover lasagna” or “Dinner out” right into a slot.
* **Sync everywhere** – planner and shopping list update in real time on iOS, Android, and the Web App.

1. Open CookBook and tap **Planner** in the bottom bar or left panel
2. Use the + button to add recipes from your library onto any calendar slot.
