Swapping meals

Swap a meal

If a meal does not appeal, swap it for something else from the Bolus catalogue.

How to swap

  1. Open the meal you want to change, from Today or Upcoming.
  2. Tap Swap.
  3. Pick a replacement. You can search the full meal catalogue, or choose from the suggestions.

The suggestions are split into two groups: meals you have ingredients for and meals that need extra ingredients. Meals in the second group show how many extra items you would need to buy, so you can keep your shop small if you want to.

Swap for one day or the whole week

Before you confirm, choose how far the swap reaches:

  • This slot changes just that one meal.
  • First 5 days applies it across the first five days of the plan.
  • Every day uses it for that meal type all week.

This is handy for breakfast or lunch, where you might want the same thing several days running.

Good to know

  • Bolus swaps the whole meal. It does not edit the ingredients of an existing meal.
  • You cannot swap a meal you have already marked as eaten, skipped, or eaten out until you clear that first.
  • There is no limit on how many meals you can swap.

When you confirm, your shopping list updates to match.
