What it does
Mealia plans a week of meals around a household's diet, tastes, family size and budget, then builds the shopping list. It connects to UK supermarkets including Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury's and Morrisons so the basket only has what is needed, and ingredients can be swapped or removed if they are already in the cupboard.
