PlateJoy 

Love it! I can adjust the number of recipes each week. The batch cooking option is a lifesaver. Makes sticking to our lower carb lifestyle so easy.

It definitely saves time and allows you to customise everything! Worth it for sure

This app has changed my life. I have discovered new foods, added amazing recipes to my repertoire, lost weight and feel so much better in terms of my digestive health. The intuitiveness of the app helps manage my shopping and limit waste. Thank you!!

The recipies are great, I only wish I would be to add my own recipies to this

This service is amazing! I'm seriously so impressed with every aspect of it so far, and I will definitely be continuing after my free 10-day trial. My husband and I have loved all the recipes they've sent and found them easy to prepare. The folks at Platejoy have figured out how to customize a meal plan perfectly for your lifestyle, tastes, and needs. I'm someone who struggled a lot with constantly eating out and spending tons of money, but I find myself not even wanting to go out to eat now because of all the deliciousness we have at home. Highly recommend!

I recommend this app to so many people. When I decided to begin a vegan diet I didn’t know where to start but knew I didn’t want to get stuck eating a bunch of soy. That’s when I discovered platejoy. I’m busy and tend to overthink everything so by the time I decide what to eat I’ve already popped a frozen pizza in the oven. Platejoy does ALL the work but also gives me an opportunity to learn how to make time for myself to prepare my own food and eat well. There are SO many details available to personalize your meals from avoiding certain ingredients to adjusting portion size. Platejoy is with you every step of the way and I particularly love the pantry and shopping list feature.

I have been using PlateJoy to simplify my weekly meal prep routine. I find that it has plenty of interesting recipes and lots of variations. I did have a few minor details I disliked:
-Portion sizes: for people who are losing weight it would be more helpful to show exact weight/volume for one portion. Right now it only shows %. And I really hate counting out 16% of a pan full of pasta.
-Fitness tracker integration: Fitbit integration works, but Fitbit is an inconvenient tool to track calorie intake. I would suggest including more options for integration with the most popular apps (for example MyFitnessPal etc)
-Batch meals: it's an option I use the most, so I was excited to see them include vegetarian meals and hope to see even more variety. But my major pet peeve with that option is the inclusion of ingredients that will definitely not last a week after the batch meal prep (for example avocados, salad etc).

So disappointed with the service. They invested a lot up front to have a polished presentation, but the support and recipe offerings dropped in quality fast. I regret buying a year of service.

I recommend this app for people that want an easier way to shop for groceries and enjoy healthy eating. This app caters to special diets such as vegan, vegetarian, keto, Mediterranean, etc. You can also adjust portions and meal quantities depending on how many meals you plan to cook that week. The shopping list feature helps save time at the grocery store as it groups your shopping list in like items (dairy, canned goods, baked items, vegetables, etc.). Since my family started using this, we've found ourselves eating more fruits and vegetables. It's the type of product that is for those who enjoy meal kits but don't like meal kit pricing.

It’s a good concept but I don’t know that I’m getting a huge benefit paying for the service instead of just doing the work myself.

In many ways I've really enjoyed my subscription to platejoy, but after a few months I wasn't using it very often. I really would like to see their vegetarian selection improve. I find much of the vegetarian dinners are just a salad, or items that seem like only a portion of the meal, so I'm still having to do a lot of meal planning to fill up my growing family, and create balanced meals. I've also been trying to incorporate a keto lifestyle, so I went into my account to add keto to my profile. Unfortunately I wasn't able to select the keto option and I can't figure out why. I've spent a lot of time online trying to figure out who to (and how...) contact for this feature to be applied to my profile. I really don't like the fact that I can't get in contact with anyone at platejoy without needing to create an account in this forum. It's left me feeling frustrated to use this app ongoing

PlateJoy has diversified our menus. I chose the Mediterranean option and the recipes are delicious and varied. We waste less food and enjoy healthier meals.

I've enjoyed PlateJoy. The app is easy to use, no issues with the company. Makes meal planning for the week very easy. Recipes are tasty.

The only downside with PlateJoy is that I have to stop being lazy about cooking, but that's not too difficult when the meals are quick and easy. I tried about a dozen other meal planning programs and can say that this one works the best for me.

I love how it generates my shopping list for me. Plus it helps decrease the amount of food waste i have. The recipes are good but when on keto they feel to be repetitive after a while. I wish there was a way to add recipes into the program instead of manually entering/editing your shoppong list. Plus all your recipes would be on website or app. No need for paper prints

While I think Plate Joy is a great idea, it wasn't for me. It is a great tool for people who want to cook new recipes, but don't have the time or desire to create their own meal plan.

The "use up" feature and grocery list feature are nice. The grocery list doesn't allow to leave meat off the list.

I found it too restrictive for me, but my friend who I told about it loves it.

I enjoy cooking, but not meal planning. I hate juggling ingredients, picking recipes with ingredient overlap, and making up my own grocery lists because I always feel like the process could be more time efficient and cost-effective.

PlateJoy solves this problem. I am a loyal customer who raves about this app to everyone I know — coworkers, my sis with small kids, everyone I vaguely know on Twitter, et cetera. It is good enough to be generally satisfying. I use it primarily for weekday lunches/dinners/snacks and leave the weekends open to try out new recipes from YouTube or NYT or wherever with my partner.

My three sticking points are that the spice levels on their recipes are often a bit mild (but I love spicy-hot food), I'd like more paneer and South Asian recipes, and I prefer eating only 1-2 recipes for lunch each week, but those are all easy to fix within the app by doubling some spices during cooking, adding one's own recipes to the app, and upping the portion count on the 1-2 lunch recipes I ask the app to generate. I like that PlateJoy gives me this flexibility.

I don't use its connection to FitBit because I'm a cronometer user, but it seems like a straightforward API connector that would be helpful to people who use FitBit.

This program has really helped us stay on track for maintaining weightloss and staying on budget for food. But most important it has cut way down on the stress to plan healthy and tasty food for the week without getting repetitive. Some of the recipes have been a flop but over we have loved most things and been introduced to some new combinations. We also love the diet and lifestyle options this program includes.

Platejoy was a game changer for me. As a working mom with a nut allergic child, I struggled to get a home cooked meal on the table night after night. We were spending too much time and money on take out and restaurants. Platejoy lets me tailor menus to my family, and generate shopping lists as well.

Huge variety, trustworthy company, and excellent customer service!
