Hello,
I think the menu generated from our favorite food selection is just great, I only wish that from that menu result we could also generate an ingredients list required for the weekly menu. It would make the trip to the market easier.
Is that possible?Thanks
I just want to compliment whoever put together the menu site. I think it is great and easy to do. One thing, unless I haven’t gotten to it yet (just joined yesterday) is there a list of “free” foods – like seasoning, etc?
please could you tell me ,when looking
at the menu for each day do you pick one of the items in each section
as ther seems to be a lot.I found there is a list of “free” vegetables that you can have as much as you want. And as for spices (except salt) you are free to. Sauces, like soy sauce, can be high in sodium. Even the “low sodium” you may want to limit the intake. There are articles on the site of what to eat and what not eat and whys but that may be available only if you purchased the “extra” stuff.
please could you advice me on how to understand the menu to i have to eat everything in each section or pick so many
Hello,
I don’t understand why we have to complete the menu planner when after completing, the first recipe that came up was Lemon Cottage Cheese Muffins. I hate cottage cheese and did not select it anywhere on the menu planner. If I’m going to get menus with fodds I will not eat, this is a total waste of time. So now I have to select alternation options which is very time consuming.
I guess that’s why you lose weight. You spend so much time on the computer, you don’t have time to eat 🙂
Has anyone else had this issue?
Thanksi did not get products I dont eat, but got so many suggestions individually or in receipes with ingredients not available in england unless lucky to live with specialist shops on your doorstep. also the combinations given on the menus are bizzar, and the amounts like suggesting having two portions of “almond chicken apricot delight on one meal”.i am at the moment feeling cheated as i feel that it just ramdomly plonks food anywhere on your planner just to fill it up.what would you suggest I do to make the following tasty, a bowl of porridge with 1 frankfurter,a tomato, an egg all as a snack at one sitting- yuck!also please answer this- recipes dont tell you how many to divide into for portions- eg banana brown butter bread?
Hi, Carmel. If you get combinations you don’t like, you can change individual items in your menu by clicking on the swap out icon next to them. As for the issue of 2 portions of a recipe – note that a single portion is generally half what the average person eats, just in case people want more variety at their meal. As for the foods, they are available in England and through the web. The following are some links you may find helpful:

What am I supposed to do with the mustard in this “snack” (which looks like a whole breakfast to me, by the way.)
1/4 tsp of Mustard
3 Graham Crackers, 2.5-inch square
6 ounces of Greek Yogurt, 0-2% Fat

Hi, Kayla. Thanks for your input. I have forwarded your comments to our tech support team. In the meantime, remember that you can always swap out individual foods in your menu by clicking on the button next to it.
I just joined today and would love for the menu planner to generate a grocery list each week. That would make it soooo much easier.
hi ossie. thank you for your reply. I am having so many problems with this website today ists unbelieveable..can you please tell me in relpy to the portions_ ie two protions of the chicken dish- how many portions are in the whole recipe. I have searched all recipes and cant find how many protions each dis makes. eg also banana brown butter bread.if I have to make something and divide it we need to know how many it is for to start with. I may seem daft but I assure you I am not and ther is noting to tell you how many protions each meal divide in on the recipes.please help as I really want this to work and dont feel all that confidant in this at moment. also concerned as a topic entered is now not on website??
