My recipes

Add your own family favourites

Create a recipe manually, or upload a recipe photo and let AI draft it into the LunchLoop format. You can keep recipes private or mark them public as user contributed.

Your recipe library

Private recipes are only visible to you. Public recipes are visible in the main recipe list as user contributed.

Create recipe

Use plain, simple text. Ingredients and method lines are converted into the app format.

AI import from photo

Take a new photo or choose an existing image from your gallery. LunchLoop will resize the image before uploading.

No photo selected yet.

AI needs an API key in api/config.php. You can always enter the recipe manually.

Smart shopping

A list you can actually shop from

Create an ad-hoc list, pull from the selected day, week or month, then use shop mode to tick things off.

List source

Choose whether this list comes from ad-hoc recipes or your planner.

Install LunchLoop

Add LunchLoop to your home screen so it opens like an app.

Active family

Users can belong to more than one family. Switch here to manage a different shared planner and shopping list.

Families can have the same display name. LunchLoop uses a unique family ID internally so each family stays separate.

Invite someone

Create an invite link for the active family. They can sign in with Google and join this same family profile.

5-minute family code

Use this when someone already has LunchLoop installed. Generate a short code or QR code, then they can scan it from their Profile page or enter the code manually.

Join another family

Enter a family code from someone else to join their shared planner and shopping list.

QR scanner

Point the camera at the family QR code.

Your families

These are the family profiles your account can access.

Sync diagnostics

Use this if planner changes do not stay after refresh. It checks the session, family and database state.

No diagnostics run yet.

      
LunchLoop syncs your family planner and shopping list when you are signed in. Share links still work for quick sharing.
