Prep-Ahead Reminders

Never get caught off guard by tomorrow's meal

MealWarden reads your meal plan and creates prep tasks automatically: soak the chana tonight, marinate the paneer this afternoon, batch-cook for the week on Sunday. Each task arrives as a reminder at the right time — the quiet reason diet plans succeed or fail.

What it does

Auto-detected prep

Soaking, marinating, thawing, batch-cooking — detected from your actual meals, not generic tips.

Timed reminders

Each task pings you when it's actionable: tonight for tomorrow's soak, hours ahead for marinades.

One prep dashboard

See everything coming up in the Prep tab — check tasks off as you do them.

Overdue nudges

Missed a prep window? MealWarden nudges you while there's still time to adapt.

    Notifications arrive when action is needed — check them off and cook stress-free.

Frequently asked questions

How does MealWarden know what needs prep?

It analyses each meal in your active plan for prep-ahead steps like soaking, marinating and batch-cooking, and creates timed tasks automatically.

Can I add my own prep tasks?

Yes — add custom tasks alongside the auto-generated ones in the Prep tab.

What happens if I miss a prep task?

You get an overdue nudge so you can still adjust — swap the meal or prep late where possible.

Do prep reminders work with scanned diet charts?

Yes. Whether your plan was scanned from a dietitian's chart or generated by your guardian, prep tasks are created the same way.

The plan fails at 7pm when the dal isn't soaked. Fix that.
