Pinch me. I’m dreaming. I’ve worked for months to bring this family-friendly and macro-focused monthly meal plan subscription to you, and it’s finally here! And I’m so excited to be able to finally tell you all about it…
Because we all know that feeding a family and macro-counting at the same time can feel like a lot. I’m hoping this meal plan will help meal planning and macro-counting easier for you.
Meet the NEW Monthly Meal Plan
Okay, here’s how it works…
You will use the web-based app via computer or phone (see how to do this under my meal plan stories on Instagram) to receive a customized dinner meal plan for your whole family that’s designed to maximize your dollar and make feeding your family while macro-counting easier.
The plan will be based on how I meal prep and plan for my own family. Typically, we make a bulk protein to use in 2-3 meals a week, and then fill in the gaps with easy, one-dish, or quick meals (you can learn more about that here).
If the meal plan uses a dinner or protein that you don’t like, the app makes it easy to swap out the protein and/or recipe and replace it with one of the other 200 recipes I have uploaded to the database. All the recipes are either new, from my cookbooks, or from my blog (and there will be more to come).
You can also set how many servings of each meal you need in the app settings to make it the perfect amount for your family every time.
After you have confirmed your meal plan for the week, you can print out everything you’ll need to make it happen (meal plan, recipes, grocery list, etc.). Then, if you order groceries online (I usually do mine at Walmart), you can auto-generate the grocery list (cross off what you already have) and send it to select grocery stores near you! So easy.

Common FAQ’s
After announcing this monthly meal plan on Instagram, there were a few common questions that people had. I thought I would answer a few of those here–just in case you were wondering the same.
How Much Does the Monthly Meal Plan Cost?
At the launch, the meal plan will cost $12 a month. If you buy 3 months at a time, you can get it for $30 ($10 a month).
What meals come with the meal plan?
Right now it is a dinner-only meal plan! I feel like that’s the hardest puzzle piece in the day to be prepared and keep your family happy while also hitting your goals.
But in the future, there might be an option to include breakfast and or lunch. It would, of course, be a simple upgrade, if you’re already a meal plan subscriber.
You can easily remove dinners if you don’t need all five that week and it will reflect in your grocery list. You can also remove a dinner or protein and add a different recipe of your choosing.
For now, you can also tell the web-based app to make an extra serving in your settings, so that you can enjoy the leftovers for lunch (if you want to).
How many calories are in each dinner?
Dinners are usually close to 400 cal and 40 g of protein, and with the help of that bulk-prepped protein each week, you’ll find it very easy to add more protein to fill in any gaps in your day! This is key to really hitting those numbers.
These are dinners that will definitely help you hit your protein, while keeping carbs and fats low. There might be a suggested carb source on the side for those who want a nice round meal, or for your family, but often in a way that’s easy for you to remove if you want to keep your dinner more low-carb.
Does it track macros?
It will give you precise measurements and macros per serving. So it’s really easy to track. However, you do still have to plug it in one of your trackers of choice–My Fitness Pal, Lose It, or Macros First.
Like all of my cookbooks and recipes, this is already pre-logged for you. All you have to do is search it and weigh it!
Is this Macro-focused Monthly Meal Plan Subscription Gluten-free and Dairy-Free?
Not officially. But since I’ve done my fair share of eating gluten and dairy-free, you’ll often see notes offering easy swaps if needed.
Macro-focused Monthly Meal Plan Subscription

The meal plan has made my nights so much less stressful! I shop for the week, prepare my bulk protein and prechop veggies and dinner is a snap! Even my pickiest eaters have found something each night they love!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️This meal plan is five stars. I just started it a few weeks ago and I’m already so impressed. The bulk protein is a game changer and so easy to do on a Sunday to start the week. The meals are simple to prepare and so delicious. I love having the meals and groceries layed out for me so that everything is ready to go. As a teacher mom with a child in sports it has made feeding my family so easy. I don’t count macros but knowing that these meals are macro friendly helps me to know that they are a healthy balanced meal to feed my family. Highly recommend this meal plan!!
I’ve been using the meal plan for a couple of months now and I LOVE it so much! The shopping list feature is great, but the best part is how it links to retailers in my area. I can check off the ingredients I already have on hand and it sends the rest to my grocery app. This has saved me so much time and money because I’m not impulse buying from the end caps. The recipes are delicious with flavors I wouldn’t have thought to combine but work together so nicely. I’m eating more variety of vegetables and very little processed foods, all while easily staying in my macros. Thank you for this, app… it’s giving me back so much time to do other things I enjoy!
Love the flavor and variety! I made this week’s veggie pasta skillet and everyone liked it (it must be said that almost everyone doesn’t like veggies). The recipes are really just that good. 5⭐
I’ve been a fan of Lillie’s food for a couple of years now- and the BEST part about her meal plan ‘app’ is being able to change the servings and save it and also change to metrics. Game changer and her food is all seriously delicious.
My husband and I both work long hours, and found ourselves repeating recipes week after week for our three young children. I saw this meal plan and thought we would try it for a few months, and we are now subscribers for life!! We tell everyone we meet about the way this meal plan has saved us, no longer stressing about meals or looking at my pantry trying to figure out which foods will make a somewhat healthy meal. Each night we come home, whoever is home first starts dinner and our kids eat everything alongside us. My four year old is asking for salmon! Thank you so much for putting this plan together, helping us improve our eating habits and even save money along the way!!
Not only amazing healthy dinners but a shopping list that is ready in minutes! As well as so much money saved by having a plan! So grateful!
Love, love, love the plan. It makes life easier and everyone likes the food so you are not wasting your time on something people won’t eat.
I’ve been obsessed with Lillie’s food for a long time. The meal plan is no exception! Literally everything on there is DELICIOUS!!! Not only is it delicious, healthy food, but there’s no thinking about what’s for dinner!! And the shopping directly from the app… yes please!! It doesn’t get any easier. I’m obsessed. With Lillie, with her food, and with her app.
Such a great find! I always struggle planning meals and not wasting half of the ingredients I buy. I got Lillies cook book first and this was the first time I could cook for my picky family and make everyone happy at once! This meal plan has been a game changer! For one, the meals are ALL amazing and now I don’t waste any ingredients. I also love how you can change the serving size to fit your family! We just became empty nesters and cooking for 2 has been surprisingly hard. This has been perfect for when I don’t want a ton of leftovers. Just wish I had this when the kids were home!
The thing that’s so amazing about all of Lillie’s recipes is how flavorful they all are while still having great macros… and EVERYONE in the family loves them! 5 stars all around!
Meals are delicious and healthy and loved by the whole family!!
Love the meal plan!! It saves me so much time and takes away the stress of planning. It’s easy to swap something out if I need to. Having the bulk proteins are exceptionally nice and the grocery list already being prepared makes it easy to check off what I already have and then take the rest of the store or do an order.
