“What’s for Dinner?” Almost everyone wrestles with that question daily. www.papayahead.com is an online Meal Planning and Nutritional Analysis website. While many things set PapayaHead apart, the key feature is a Weekly Meal Plan based on individual preference and health considerations. This plan includes a shopping list to help make preparing dinner easier.

These features helped PapayaHead to be selected as a winner, out of more than one hundred entries, in the USDA/Michelle Obama “Apps for Healthy Kids” contest last fall.

PapayaHead is growing and is now preparing to introduce a new capability allowing dietitians to publish subscription based Weekly Dinner Plans for their clients and their client’s families. Dietitians will be able publish their own Recipes or Meals in Weekly Dinner Plans, or they can use PapayaHead’s extensive database of Recipes, Meals and Weekly Dinner Plans.

We frequently notice our colleagues’ listserve requests for this type of tool. Currently this capability is in the design stage and PapayaHead would welcome the opportunity to preview the program with you and to receive your feedback, via a live webcast, in an effort to fully understand what would benefit RD’s most.
