Personalized meal planning for real life.
Food for Thought is a simple, customized meal planning service designed to take the stress out of deciding what to cook. I build weekly plans around your tastes, schedule, and cooking comfort — using a carefully curated recipe library built over more than a decade, so dinner feels doable, not overwhelming.
This isn’t about perfection or trendy recipes. It’s about making everyday meals easier.
Fill out a short intake form so I understand your preferences, dietary considerations, schedule, and how much time you want to spend cooking.
I create a personalized weekly meal plan using trusted, well-tested recipes — many collected, written, or manually entered from cookbooks over the years, including recipes that can no longer be found online. You’ll receive recipes, planning tips, and a streamlined grocery list.
No more last-minute decisions or wasted groceries — just a clear plan that fits your week.
Have ingredients on hand but no ideas? I’ll suggest recipes to help you use what you already have.
A fully personalized week of meal planning, including recipes, planning tips, and a grocery list.

Hi, I’m Tricia — a lifelong home cook who loves planning meals as much as cooking them. Food for Thought grew naturally from more than a decade of collecting, testing, and organizing recipes — from early internet finds that no longer exist to recipes carefully entered by hand from cookbooks and refined over time.
I don’t just find recipes — I curate, adapt, and plan them so they work in real kitchens, real schedules, and real lives.
I believe good food doesn’t have to be complicated — it just needs a little thought.
