How do I find and browse recipes in the Meals tab?

Start with your weekly suggestions, then search by keyword, filter by meal type or dietary need, or browse the curated collections.

Every week, our nutrition team handpicks a set of recipes just for that week — these are your Weekly Suggestions, and they're designed so you don't have to dig through a library to figure out what to make. But when you want to explore on your own, there are a few ways to find exactly what you're looking for. You can open any recipe before committing to see the macros, cook time, serving size, and notes from our chefs.


Search by keyword

Tap the Find a recipe search bar at the top of the Recipes tab to open the full search screen. Type any keyword — a recipe name, an ingredient, or even a general idea like "chicken" or "pasta" — and we'll search across recipe titles, descriptions, and ingredient lists to surface matching results.


Filter by meal type, diet, or nutrition

Not sure what to search for? Use the filter options to narrow things down. Tap the filter icon or any of the filter pills at the top of the search screen to open the full filter panel.

You can filter by:

Filter Option

Results

Meal Type

Breakfast, Brunch, Lunch/Dinner

Dietary Restrictions

Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Vegan, Vegetarian, Pescatarian, Peanut Free, Tree Nut Free, Sesame Free, Shellfish Free, Soy Free, Egg Free, Fish Free

Nutrition

High Protein or High Fiber

Cuisine

Asian, Italian, Mediterranean, Mexican, American, World, and more

Category

<30 Min, Kid Approved, Protein Packed, Fan Favorites, Fiber Friendly

💡 How dietary filters work: Recipes tagged with a dietary restriction were built that way from the start — so you can trust the filter. But even recipes that aren't tagged may still work for you: most recipes include substitution suggestions for common needs like vegetarian, dairy-free, gluten-free, and nut-free swaps. How do dietary filters work in the Meals Tab?

You can mix and match — apply multiple filters at once across different categories, and combine them with a keyword search at the same time. Tap Apply to see your results, or Reset to clear everything and start over.


Browse curated collections

Scroll to the bottom of the Recipes tab home screen to find curated recipe collections. Each one opens the search screen with that filter already applied — no setup needed.

  • <30 min — quick meals when time is tight

  • Kid Approved — family-friendly picks

  • Protein Packed — higher-protein recipes to support your training

  • Fan Favorites — community-loved recipes

  • All Recipes — opens the full library with no filters applied


Find recipes from your plan view

You can also search for and add recipes directly from the My Plan tab — just tap Add a recipe ⊕ to open the same search screen without having to navigate back to the home screen first.
