    Did you know that Microsoft Office isn't just for businesses? This suite of programs makes it super easy to streamline essential household tasks, and now comes in a Personal version that is not only affordable, you can access it both at home and on the go.  In short, you can take all of your organizational documents with you where ever you go!

    One of the things I have been missing in my life is a proper meal planning template to use as I plan our meals each week. I wanted something that was easy to use, easy to access from on the go, and easy to reuse my favorite recipes.

    OneNote was a great option for me to create my meal planning template!

    Meal planning page

    The meal plan has 2 sections, a weekly calendar section and a recipe section. OneNote is an amazing tool because you can add links to your recipe section or add external links to open a recipe from the web. Within the calendar section is a grocery list page. You can open OneNote on your mobile phone and actually check off the items as you shop.

    OneNote is a fantastic tool for anything you want to keep track of. You can even insert excel spreadsheets into a OneNote Notebook, "print" just about anything into a OneNote page and create an entire virtual noteboook that is organized and always at your fingertips.

    Your Office 365 Personal subscription allows you to use OneNote on one PC and one iPad. You also can use OneNote on any number of smartphones for free.

      The link will not work for me. I have One note but it says that is not an app it can be downloaded to.

        Download the .onepkg, then load in One note. Click the link, let it load, click download. Continue to load in One Note.

      Thank you for this. I was looking for something easy to put either into Excel or OneNote. I could have made one on my own, but I was not in the mood to do my own. Thanks!

      I was so excited to use this but it won't load into my onenote 🙁 Thanks for the idea. I will have to see if I can create something myself.

        Oh, I'm sorry, maybe it's because it was created on an older version. I'll have to see if I can update it to the current version.

      I was searching for meal planning ideas and found a site where you had to pay for the program. I thought, I bet this can be done in One Note, so I did a search and found this. I have already copied a recipe and made a link to it on my meal plan. Thank you so much.

      Hi,
      This seems very very helpful, but I just can't access it on my Mac. I was wondering if you knew how to..

      Has anyone had a problem with getting the file to unpack? When I open it in one note, it has a pop up that says "unpacking..." and it gets pretty far but then just seems to stall after a while & never opens.
      Just checking to see if anyone else may have had this issue..

      Wow! Thank you! You're awesome to have included such great instructions. I just downloaded. I'm not new to Onenote, but I'm not too saavy with it either. This looks like it will be easy for me.

      I downloaded the file just fine, but when I tried to open it, the error message said it's from an older version of OneNote and cannot be opened. What version is it from? I use 2007.

        Ok, I'm an idiot. 🙂 The entire post is about what version.. duh. Is there any way you could convert it to 2007 for me? thanks!

          That's odd, it doesn't give me the option to save it as a different version.

            Hi Kim

            All you need to do is open the notebook properties and convert to 2007 to convert it back to an older version, even I am having a version problem 🙁

      I need to give this a try, I use OneNote for everything else including recipes. I just can't seem to make menu planning stick, maybe this will help since OneNote is already integrated in my daily routines!

      I have Office365 and OneNote but I haven't adequately played with either of them. I do LOVE OneNote for note-taking!
