Linking Your Mealplan to Your Calendar

You can easily share your mealplan with other calendars by linking your mealplan to your calendar. This way, you can always know what’s for dinner.

Recipinned uses the iCal format to expose your mealplan in a way that can easily be imported by most other calendar applications. This means you can link your mealplan to your Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Outlook, or any other calendar application that supports the iCal format.

  1. Open the Recipinned Website and log in to your account.
  2. Click on the “Meal Plans” tab in the navigation bar.
  3. Click the More Actions button (the three dots at the right of the toolbar) and select Sync with Calendar.
  4. Click on the Copy button to copy the iCal link to your clipboard or highlight the link and copy it manually.

Note that you can configure what times meals are scheduled to be added to your calendar under Meal Plan Calendar in Meal Plan Settings.
