MealTwine (previously MealPal) began as a passion project, and I’m always looking for ways to improve it. I envision adding features like automatic shopping list generation and personalized meal/meal plan recommendations in the future. Your feedback is invaluable to me! If you have any thoughts or suggestions — whether it’s about features you’d like to see or ways things could work better — please feel free to reach out via email at info.mealtwine@gmail.com.
