Start with targets, food preferences, and real-world constraints

Enter calories and macros, then set diet, allergens, cuisine, prep time, and meals per day. The meal plan generator uses those rules to build a practical week of meals with recipes, a shopping list, and nutrition analysis — across 40+ diet protocols and 18 cuisines.

Why dietitians and coaches choose NutriAdmin

Generating a plan is the easy part. Here's what keeps dietitians and coaches coming back after the first draft.

Help clients stay on plan

Realistic recipes and clear instructions make it easier for clients to follow through between sessions.

Trust the numbers

Macros and micronutrients are checked against recommended daily targets as you work, so you can see gaps before you sign off on a plan.

Save hours each week

Build a full week in about 60 seconds, or start from templates and your own recipes instead of a blank spreadsheet.

Add meal planning to your services

Offer meal plans as a paid add-on to your practice — without late nights tweaking recipes and macros.

Edit day by day with live macro totals

Tweak any day in the meal plan editor. Calories and macros update as you add foods, so you can see whether you’re meeting the client’s targets. Pull from our recipes database, add your own recipes, or enter custom foods — and compare items side by side as you go.

Full macro & micronutrient analysis

See macro and micronutrient totals against recommended daily targets as you build the plan, with flags when an intake looks low or high. Pull from USDA, AUSNUT, UK, and your own food databases — and run BMR, BMI, and related calculations in the same workflow.

Send a branded PDF or share in the client portal

Export a PDF with your logo, recipes, shopping list, and nutrition breakdown — or post the plan in the client portal so clients can log in, view meals, and complete your questionnaires. No more emailing attachments back and forth.
