AMAZING

If you are someone who loves to do grocery pickup and try new recipes, this is for you!!!! This app has been my saving grace!!! I am a teacher and do not have spare time during the week to grocery shop. This app makes it so easy to find good recipes AND it finds the cheapest options for ingredients available at your grocery store. I cannot recommend this enough.

Jenn

This is what you’ve been looking for…

I’ve always loved the idea of meal planning/delivery services that help with food waste and making more healthful choices but HATED that I still had to buy basic groceries and pay for shipping and knowing that there was less food waste but more plastic, shipping waste… JOW SOLVES ALL OF THAT!

Anna

Stress-Free Meal Planning

I’m a mom of 2 and night shift nurse, so I’m always looking for ways to lighten my mental load where grocery shopping and meal planning is concerned! The app allows you to easily meal plan, the recipes are AMAZING, and the app caters to every dietary need and preference. Highly recommend Jow to anyone looking to save money and spend less time planning and more time with your family!
