WHAT’S FOR DINNER? THERE’S A MEAL-PLANNING APP FOR THAT.
Mealtime is when family really comes together. But every night, it’s the same question—what’s for dinner…again? Luckily, you have tools in your pocket that past generations didn’t: a smartphone or tablet. Shopping organizers, meal planners, recipes, even nutrition information—there’s a meal planning and cooking app for every part of the process. Just about the only thing your device can’t do for you is prep the meal! (It can order takeout, though. Just saying.)
SHOPPING
PERFECT PRODUCE
Trying to get your family to eat more fruits and veggies? The first step is to buy more of them, and then figure out what to do with them at home. This app helps you select the best produce, gives advice on how to keep it fresh, and offers quick tips on which items give you the most nutritional bang for your buck.
MEALBOARD
If you have to go to the store, you want your grocery experience to be smooth and quick. Tailor your shopping list not just to your recipe plans, but to the store where you’re shopping. This app analyzes the recipes you want to make and then uploads the store’s prices, so you know you’ll stick to your budget before you even walk into the supermarket.
DELIVERY
INSTACART
Since going to the grocery store comes with its own risks nowadays, it’s often wise to use a delivery service as an alternative. Instacart allows you to choose from your desired retailers, order groceries, use coupons and even select a “contactless delivery” option.
SHIPT
Want to avoid the grocery store? Try Shipt. Just download the app, sign up for a membership and order your groceries. Shipt works with most major grocery chains and is available during store hours, so 24/7 in some cases.
COOKING
HOW TO COOK EVERYTHING
Food columnist Mark Bittman wrote this classic to make cooking easy for everyone, even novices. Now the entire thing—that’s thousands of recipes—has gone from a hardcover cookbook to a cooking app and it can be downloaded onto your phone, complete with everything from basic tips to shopping lists.
EPICURIOUS
If you’re bored by your go-to recipes (or just plain out of ideas) this treasure trove of recipes will come up with something for you. More than 30,000 meal ideas are banked in this incredible cooking app, with new ones added all the time—and you can have them read to you by voice commands so you can keep your eyes on the stove.
Just like the latest technology, Vanity Fair® napkins & tableware can make dinnertime that much easier. Learn more about how you can save time for what matters most with our help today.
PLANNING
SUBSTITUTIONS
Maybe you’re dealing with food restrictions – or maybe you just don’t feel like hiking back to the grocery store for a missing ingredient. This app will help you tweak a recipe to accommodate your needs – and still end up with something you’ll enjoy eating.
COOKPAD
Part cooking tutorial, part social media, this crowdsourced meal planning app helps you find something new for dinner. If you’re unsure whether a particular recipe will work for you, you can see how other users rated it – and get tips from pros on making it even better.
