Meal planner

A weekly meal planner that plans around the days you cook

ThymeBlock is an iOS app that builds your week from a goal and the days you can cook. It picks the recipes, times the cooking so leftovers cover the days between, and hands you one grocery list. If you want a calorie and macro target, it sets one for you. There is nothing to log.

Pick this week's goal

Plan around a target with Hit my macros, or keep it light with Just dinners or Lunch and dinner. Change it any week you like. Skip any day you like: eating out Wednesday means Wednesday is left off, and the plan works around it.

Cook days, and leftovers that cover the rest

Choose the days you actually cook. Two, three, whatever your week allows. ThymeBlock plans meals on those days and covers the others with leftovers, sized so nothing sits too long. Cook less often and it leans on freezer-friendly recipes.

Hit your macros without counting them

On Hit my macros, a few quick questions turn your details into a daily calorie and macro target. After that, ThymeBlock just reuses it. You never log food. If a meal doesn't suit, swap it, or reshuffle the week and lock the recipes you want to keep.

Get your plan and one list

ThymeBlock builds the week to your goal, times the cooking around leftovers so nothing goes to waste, and hands you a grocery list sorted by aisle. The automatic planner is part of Prime Thyme. Planning by hand, and the grocery list that follows, is on every plan.

FAQ
