We were looking for a meal plan option with last waste but this basically charges you for recipes. Without more tools, none of these actually made it to our table. For $8 a month and cancel anytime, I... See more
I really like all the features, but the recipes are really really boring. It seems like if you select many of the healthy options (that still include meat), you're just eating a seared meat + vegetabl... See more

Large family- makes things easy!
I have a family of 8, with 5 kids age 8 and under. I have been absolutely blown away with how extremely customizable PlateJoy is, and am going on my second year using it now. We haven't really had any "failed" recipes, and I can easily pick things that give us a wide variety of healthy food, but also fit into a busy life. The only tweaks for us are that while portion sizes get scaled, cooking dishes size and time spend chopping for larger groups does not, so a little bit of common sense is needed there. But this doesn't take away from the 5-star review.
I love that anyone can use it no matter what their dietary or time restraints, and it keeps us from wasting food because I build my grocery list with exactly what we need!

I love PlateJoy and it has been a lifesaver for me. I suffer from Graves disease and the menus and ease of grocery shopping gives me great peace of mind. No longer do I have to sift thru cookbooks and make a grocery list. And, the selections are wonderful. I only wish I could add some of my recipes to the app and have them included in the grocery lists.
Good Service but Lacking Features
I enjoy the service very well if you need help meal planning. As my wife and I used for 2 years, I find that it means our needs but it is getting a little bland and the features are lacking a bit.
PlateJoy is a Lifesaver
PlateJoy was a lifesaver for me when my husband and I moved to a plant-based diet after being diagnosed with MS. It saved me countless hours of recipe research and prep, and is one of the most customizable products of its kind. I love how it chooses meals to reduce food waste, and how your menu is based on so many factors (i.e. the kitchen appliances you own, dietary restrictions, whether or not you like to eat leftovers, etc.).
Saves us time and money
I love how customizable the menus are. The app let's you choose what kinds of grocery stores you shop at, if you plan to eat leftovers, and what kind of food diet you want (vegetarian, pescaterian, keto, ect.) It even lets you choose meals based on what you already have in your kitchen! Seriously I used to spend hours meal planning. Now it takes like 5 minutes and the grocery list is made. This app is worth the price. My husband and I both have it on our phones so we can easily grocery shop together quickly (which is essential when you have a toddler :) )
I love this app!
I love this app! No more time wasted figuring out what to make. I can input my preferences, how many of each meal, and it puts together my meals for the week and the grocery list. Fantastic!
Awesome
I wouldn’t have been successful on my diet without this. Great app. I recommend it to everyone I know could use help with cooking and planning.
I enjoy using Platejoy
I enjoy using Platejoy. The flexibility it provides in meal planning is what I need.
Super time and money saver
This program has really helped out with budgeting and meal planning for me. It's highly customizable with everything from Paleo to vegan and enough variety so I don't get bored. I use this in conjunction with a grocery pick up app and cannot emphasis enough the time and money I save when I stick to this plan. I'm a busy nurse and I recommend this program often and repeatedly to family and friends.

Very convenient for meal planning and shopping list- the meals are often mediocre, so I have learned to supplement with spices and ingredients but the base ideas are good.
Will definitely renew my PlateJoy subscription again next year!
PlateJoy takes much of the work out of weekly menu planning. I like that I can change the type of diet each week ie low carb, paleo, gluten free, dairy free. I can exclude certain foods my family can't eat. I can also choose the number of Breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks per week as well as the number of people eating each of those. There are lots of low carb meals that include the carbohydrate count and make it easy to dose insulin. The snacks are great and often not something I would have thought to make. The shopping list that asks what I have in my pantry first is awesome. It is so much easier to menu plan by selecting images
of meals that appeal to you. If I am in a hurry I can have a healthy meal plan for 3-5 days and grocery list in 10 minutes. Many of the meals I have made are worth making again and are easily added to favorites. PlateJoy makes my weekday meal planning and cooking so much easier.
Good service helps save time & money
Good service helps save time & money. They have started adding more recipes. Plan works well with food allergies.
Love me some Platejoy!
Love Platejoy! Makes cooking and shopping easy (and I hate grocery shopping). Highly recommend.
Platejoy is the best menu planner for large families
I love Platejoy! We are a large family so when out shopping for menu planner most stopped with family of 6, that didn’t really work for a family of 9, I tried doubling the recipes but that was too much, I tried several menu planners and thought this is silly I am spending way too much time with this, then found platejoy! I can customize how many in my family, if it’s for a child or adult, you can pick several meal plan options from paleo, keto, low carb, vegetarian, diabetic and many more, it tells me full nutrition of the meals for each person also, I can also check off things I do not like such as fish or add things that aren’t listed, it gives me a grocery list weekly on what to buy, I can also add things to this list, if I have something I purchased on sale such as chicken I can put that in and it will give me recipes to use the chicken up, I have been using platejoy for about 8 mos and all the recipes are super easy and very good, it has simplified my life

Recipies are quick and easy as well as delicious. Portion sizes are spot on.
Platejoy is great!
I’ve used Platejoy for a year now with my husband, and we’ve both lost about twenty pounds. But that’s not even the best part! Their food is excellent, convenient, and healthy, without being tragic. Which is why I’ve used it happily for a year and still look forward to finding out what recipes we’ll have week to week!
