Meal planning for real families

Weeknight dinners, planned before the 5pm panic.

Sprout builds a week of dinners your kids will actually eat, writes the grocery list, and tells you what to start when — so Tuesday night stops being a scramble.

How it works

Three steps. Ten minutes on Sunday.

Set it up once, then let Sprout handle the weekly “what's for dinner?” for you.

1

Tell us about your table

How many you're feeding, who won't touch mushrooms, any allergies, and which nights are chaos (soccer, late meetings, dance class).

2

Get your week, instantly

Sprout drafts five dinners matched to your schedule — fast ones on busy nights, something cozier when you've got time. Swap any meal with a tap.

3

Shop once, cook calmly

One combined grocery list, sorted by aisle or sent straight to pickup. Each night, a timeline tells you exactly what to start and when.

Features

Built for the household, not the food blogger.

Every feature exists because a parent told us about a dinner that went sideways.

🥦

Picky-eater mode

Flag what each kid will and won't eat. Sprout finds meals the whole table shares — or suggests a tiny tweak so one plate goes sauce-free.

📅

Schedule-aware planning

Sync your family calendar. Practice runs until 6? That night gets a 15-minute meal or a slow-cooker dinner that's ready when you are.

🛒

One smart grocery list

Ingredients combined across the week, sorted by aisle, with pantry items you already have crossed off. Export to any pickup service.

♻️

Leftover logic

Half a bunch of cilantro on Tuesday becomes Thursday's taco topping. Less waste, less money, fewer sad vegetables in the crisper.

⏱️

Cook-along timeline

“Start the rice. Now chop the onion. Pan on at 5:52.” A step-by-step clock so everything lands on the table hot at the same time.

👨‍👩‍👧

Shared with the whole crew

Partners see the plan, teens can claim a night to cook, and anyone can add “we're out of milk” to the list from their own phone.

From real kitchens

“I haven't said ‘I don't know, what do you want?’ in months.”

Two kids, two sports, two working parents. Sprout is the first thing that actually understood our Tuesdays are a disaster and our Sundays are free. We eat together five nights a week now.

My 6-year-old eats about nine foods. Picky-eater mode found dinners we all like without me cooking two meals. I cried a little the first week. Not kidding.

Our grocery bill dropped about $60 a week because we stopped buying stuff we already had and tossing half of it. The app paid for itself in the first month.

FAQ

Questions parents actually ask.

What if my kids won't eat what Sprout suggests?

Tell us what each person likes and avoids. Sprout prioritizes meals everyone shares and suggests “deconstructed” versions (tacos, bowls, pizzas) where each kid builds their own. You can swap any meal in one tap, and Sprout learns from what you keep.

Do I have to cook every night?

Nope. Mark the nights you want off — takeout Friday, leftovers Thursday, dinner at Grandma's — and Sprout plans around them. You can plan anywhere from two to seven dinners a week.

Does it work with my grocery store?

Yes. Your list is sorted by aisle for in-store shopping, and you can export it to most major pickup and delivery services. Sprout never locks you into a specific retailer.

Can I add my own family recipes?

Absolutely. Paste a link or type a recipe in, and Sprout adds it to your rotation, builds the grocery items, and schedules it on nights that fit its cook time.

What happens after the free trial?

Your plan continues only if you choose one. We don't ask for a card up front, so there's nothing to forget to cancel. Your meal history stays saved for 90 days if you decide to come back.

Make this the last week you wing dinner.

Set up your family in two minutes. Your first week of dinners and the grocery list will be waiting.
