I made a tool I used to create weekly menus publicly available: https://www.weekmaal.nl

Example menu: https://www.weekmaal.nl/public/4fc17e55-cc39-4a4e-b6cf-79c1c...

Warning: Only available in dutch!

I was doing weekly groceries since last summer and had partially automated the process of aggregating the ingredients into one grocery list already.

When the social distancing started I figured maybe others would find this tool useful, so I spent a couple of days building a usable interface and account creation features and told some friends on Facebook. Nobody, besides me and my girlfriend, ended up really using it, but it was a nice exercise nonetheless ;).



Nice! Do you know if it would be possible to automatically get the recipe list into something AH, Jumbo or picnic delivery?


Thanks! As of now, no, but I'm thinking about adding such functionality with a chrome extension maybe, not sure yet if that really works out or if I get round to it though. But its currently my biggest bottleneck in my own workflow so it may just get there ;).

My ambition is to plan out for 3 months or so and then to be able to split up the groceries and order all the non-expiry stuff once from a grocery delivery shop and have a weekly grocery list to take to a bio shop.
