Works well with some changes
Maybe it's just my personal preference, but I changed this up immediately. I added a list view to the Meal Planner tab to make the meal plans easier, and made a new database for ingredients and pantry items cross-linked to the recipes. I was initially confused by the instructions to link recipes to the day, but I found that you need to open the date by hovering your mouse and clicking on the "Open page" button, then plan by day from there. You can also do this by adding a date to the recipe itself. Otherwise, the template does its job well. Thank you!

Dad Brain Dump!
This template has simplified the relationship between my recipe book and my calendar! Single dad of two means I don't have much extra space in my brain, and this template has been instrumental in feeding myself and my kids healthy meals.
