Carby: Budget Meal Planner

About this app

Carby plans your week of dinners around the things that actually matter: where you shop, what you want to spend, the food you like, and what's in your kitchen. Answer a few quick questions and Carby builds a full Monday–Friday dinner plan with a costed, ready-to-shop grocery list — no more staring into the fridge at 6pm. WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT • Shop your store — Walmart, Kroger, Target, Aldi, Costco, Safeway, Publix, Whole Foods, or Trader Joe's. Prices adjust to where you actually shop. • Stay on budget — set a weekly dinner budget and Carby keeps the whole plan under it. See your estimated total before you spend a cent. • Live prices — pull real, current prices for your store so your grocery total reflects today, not a guess. • Cook what you like — choose vibes like Quick & Easy, High Protein, Healthy Comfort, Family Favorites, or Takeout Faves. • Your kitchen, your way — only get recipes you can actually make with the appliances you own (microwave, air fryer, oven, stove, slow cooker). • Feeds your household — scale every recipe and the shopping list to 1, 2, 4, or 6 people. • Smart grocery list — ingredients across the week are combined, grouped by aisle, and check off as you shop. Mark what's already in your pantry and it drops off the list. • Cooking mode — a clean, step-by-step, full-screen guide with built-in timers. • Save & revisit — favorite recipes, save plans, and reopen any week. Dietary needs covered: vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy-free, and nut-free. Carby turns "what's for dinner?" into a 60-second decision — and a grocery trip you've already planned.
