Meals & menus

Meal Planning helps you create reusable weekly menus, generate shopping lists, and share your planned meals with families. Once you've built your meal library, planning future weeks takes only a few minutes.

Planning meals

Create meals in the Meal Library, then drag them onto any day of the week. You can also add individual foods directly to any meal by typing into the food field. Notes may be added to any meal when needed.

Meal library

Your Meal Library stores reusable breakfasts, lunches, snacks, and other meal combinations. Saved meals can be reused as often as you'd like, making future menu planning much faster.

Planning tools

• 🎲 Randomize month automatically builds approximately four weeks of menus using meals from your library.
• Duplicate → Next Week and Duplicate → Next Month copy existing meal plans forward while keeping weekdays aligned.
• Use the ←, →, and Today buttons to quickly move between weeks.
• Save frequently used weekly menus from the Tools page and reuse them whenever you need.

Saved foods

Foods are automatically added to your Saved Foods list as you build menus. Organize them into grocery categories to generate cleaner, better-organized shopping lists.

Shopping lists

Click 🛒 Shopping to generate a shopping list for any date range. Wylari combines foods from every planned meal, groups them by category, and lets you add your own custom shopping items before printing or taking the list to the store.

Sharing with families

If enabled under Tools, your weekly meal plan is automatically published to the parent portal so families can see what's being served each day. Closed days are skipped automatically.

Printing

Use 🖨 Print to produce a clean weekly menu for posting in your daycare or sharing with families.
