Four sheets in one workbook, for Excel and Google Sheets.

Weekly Plan: 7 days with breakfast, lunch and dinner rows, 21 dropdown slots that pull from the Recipe Bank, plus counts for meals planned, meals per type, total servings and how many recipes you used.

Recipe Bank: 32 starter dishes with meal type, cook time, servings and an ingredient list. Keep them, edit them, or write your own over the top.

Grocery List: 40 rows with a store category per item, an on-plan flag that checks what this week needs, qty x price line totals and one weekly sum. Sort by category in the shop.

Price Tracker: 30 log rows for what you paid, price per unit worked out, plus a watchlist showing best and average price per item.

Standard formulas, no macros, no add-ins, recalculates on open. The zip contains meal.xlsx, instructions.md (5 minute setup, each formula explained in plain language, how to extend the dropdown range, fixes for the two common import complaints) and README.md. The workbook ships with a filled sample week, 16 sample grocery rows and 10 sample price logs, all marked, so the math is visible before you type anything.

The watchlist uses MINIFS, so it works in Google Sheets, LibreOffice and Excel 2019 or newer. On older Excel, instructions.md gives the array formula that does the same job.
