A weekly meal planner in Excel that brings the menu for the whole week and the grocery shopping list together on a single sheet. It is suitable for families, households, students, busy professionals and anyone who wants to plan meals in advance and keep food spending under control. The header contains the start date of the planned week and the weekly food budget. The menu table has one row for each day from Monday to Sunday, with separate columns for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks. Below the seven days there are blank rows for additional days, alternative menus or notes. Next to the menu is a grocery list in which you enter the item, its category, the quantity and the price. The category is selected from a drop-down list with five groups: carbs and grains, protein, vegetables, fruits and other. The Purchased? column is marked with a check mark or a cross, so you can see at a glance what has already been bought. The template contains no formulas, and all values, including prices and the budget, are entered and edited manually. Decorative food illustrations in the header are recoloured to match each colour version. The sheet is set up to print on a single landscape A4 page, ready to be put on the fridge or shared with the family.
