Sound familiar?

If your evenings look anything like this…

What you're stuck with now

It's 5pm, the kids are hungry, your work isn't done — and you're staring into the fridge hoping it'll answer.
Takeout again — not because you wanted it, but because deciding felt like one task too many.
You bought spinach. You already had spinach. It's wilting in the drawer right now.
Every Sunday you rewrite the same shopping list from scratch.
You've tried the apps. You abandoned the apps.

Yeah — we don't do that around here anymore.

What happens instead

Dinner for the whole week is decided in one calm sitting.
You tick the meals you already love. That's the entire "system".
Tick "Have at home" and stop buying your third bottle of olive oil.
The shopping list writes itself — sorted by aisle, scaled to your family.
Nothing to download, nothing to maintain. So there's nothing to abandon.

Just dinner, handled.

It really is this easy

Your whole week, sorted in 3 steps

No setup project, no learning curve. If you can tick a box and pick from a drop-down, you already know how to use it — and it's nowhere near as fussy as the other planner spreadsheets out there.

01

Tick your meals

Open the meal list and tick the dinners you already love — quick, one-pot, picky-eater-friendly — or drop in your own. That's the whole "setup".

02

Plan the week

Pick a meal for each night from a drop-down and set how many you're feeding. Leftovers, Takeout and Skip are right there for the nights real life happens.

03

Shop the list

Your shopping list builds itself — grouped by aisle and scaled to your household — so one calm trip covers the week. Done.

Everything you get

What's inside the Simple Meal Planner

Not more features to learn — fewer decisions to make. Here's exactly what it does for you.

Tick & go

Never face a blank week

A ready list of easy, familiar meals — quick, one-pot, picky-eater-friendly, five-ingredient. Tick the ones you love or drop in your own.

Self-building list

One calm shop covers the week

Pick your meals and your shopping list appears — grouped by aisle and scaled to your household, so a single trip does it.

Have-at-home tick

Stop paying twice

Tick what's already in your cupboard and watch it drop off the list. No more duplicate spinach in the bin.

Real life built in

Plans that bend, not break

Leftovers, Takeout and Skip are baked in, so a night off doesn't blow up your plan or pad your list.

No new tools

Works where you already are

Opens in Excel or Google Sheets, on your phone or laptop. No app, no login, no subscription to forget.

Free recipe drops

More meals, copy-paste ready

Join the list for quick, one-pot and five-ingredient recipes you can paste straight into your planner.

"But what about…"

The little worries, handled

I'm already overwhelmed — won't setting this up be another job?
Setup is just ticking meals you already like. Most people have their first week planned in a few minutes — and from then on it's a quick once-a-week tick, not a project.
I'm not a spreadsheet person — will I get stuck?
If you can tick a box and choose from a drop-down, you can use this. It opens in tools you already have, and there's a Start Here tab that walks you through it step by step.
I always start these and quit by week two. Why's this different?
Because there's no app pinging you and nothing to maintain. You set your week, the list builds, you shop. There's literally nothing to fall behind on.
14-DAY
PROMISE

Love it, or your money back

Try it for a full week. If it doesn't make dinner easier, email me within 14 days and I'll refund every penny — I'd genuinely rather do that than leave you stuck.

Good to know

Questions, answered

Does it count calories or macros?
No — and that's deliberate. This solves the deciding, the shopping and the time. If you want a calorie or macro tracker, this honestly isn't the tool for you.
What exactly do I get, and how?
A digital planner you open in Excel or Google Sheets, delivered to your inbox the moment you check out. Nothing physical ships.
Will it work on my phone?
Yes — it runs in the Google Sheets or Excel app on your phone, and on your laptop. Plan on whichever's nearest.
Can I add my own recipes?
Absolutely. Tick from the starter meals or type in your family favourites — your shopping list updates either way.
Is it a one-time payment?
Yes. Pay once, use it every week. No subscription, ever.
One decision away

Decide dinner once. Get your evenings back.

Tick your meals, let the list build itself, and walk past the fridge at 5pm knowing it's already sorted.

P.S. You're one Sunday away from never asking "what's for dinner?" again. Tick your meals, the list builds itself — and if it doesn't make your week easier, you get every penny back.
