Budget Bytes App Reviews

For some reason the nutrition info given in the app varies wildly compared to the exact same recipes on the website. For example, 1 pizza melt is listed as 817 calories in the app compared to 451 calories on the website. It seems to be affecting a lot of different recipes and it’s annoying to have to open up the site to check nutritional info. Other than that I enjoy the app and use it a lot to get meal ideas.

It’s amazing. I have the free version and use it all the time! There are so many recipes, even for picky eaters like myself. Instructions/ingredients are easy to read and use. You can even change the portion size and it does the math for you on how much to use of each ingredient. 100% recommend!

I was newly married with zero experience in the kitchen and I had no clue where to start. This app made cooking not only easy, but enjoyable. Everyone who I cook for loves the food. And as a visual person having pictures is the best part! Cannot sing it’s praises high enough!

I loved the blog and I’m so pleased to see there’s an accompanying app that is just as good

Use it every week!

Don’t walk, run to download this! I was so pleasantly surprised when I learned that Budget Bytes had an app! I didn’t have too high of expectations but was absolutely blown away by not only it’s aesthetic but also it’s features. This is an incredible app and will be my go to for meal planning and everyday grocery needs.

The app is easy to navigate, and they have a large library of simple recipes using low cost ingredients. Recipes include step by step photos, so even novices can use them.

I absolutely love this app! It’s impressive. Helps with meal ideas, can place orders straight to your local grocery store for online shopping. It’s well organized and easy to navigate.

Beth’s website has always been a staple in my kitchen. The app? Definitely becoming one of my favorite resources.

Longtime follower of the site. Having a quick reference at hand it great.

Hands down best cooking app ever, it makes a pro out of a apprentice!

This app is incredible. For someone who loved meal prepped services- this is an affordable and fun way to plan meals and makes picking up or getting the ingredients delivered. I cannot believe I have not found it earlier. I recommend everyone has this on their phone to stay organized and on top of food prep for you and your family. THANK YOU!

I’ve been using this app for nearly 3 years now. These recipes are very easy & after awhile you end up having mostly everything you’ll need for them. This app makes it easy to organize your week, shopping list & fill your cookbook. My categories consist of Soup, Sides & Sauces, Chicken, Pastas, Sausage, Ground Turkey/Beef, & Desserts! Some of these recipes can be rather heavy in calories, but it’s easy to make substitutions & customization is available for diet restrictions and/or allergies.

I got into budget bytes right after I graduated college to make affordable meals that were both nutritious and delicious. At that point I was just enjoying the blog but once the app was available I had to get it! Such a reliable and beautiful app for planing my weekly meals 🙌

It seems now that I discovered Budget Bytes, most of my dinner ideas come from this site. Simple recipes that you don’t have to go out and buy special ingredients.

I’ve only been using for a few months but the recipes I’ve come across are amazing on here and have become norms in the household and on top of that it really has helped me budget out meals and plan the week so much better than I was before. Was recommended to me by a friend and I recommend to everyone else who needs a single source for both recipes, list making, and meal planning. Plus they add items to your online shopping carts too!

Budget Bytes makes meal planning a breeze. It adds ingredients to a list and you can pick it up on your way home. Super easy to use. Has all kinds recipes that meet every dietary preference.

Followed the blog back in the day and got extremely excited to find her app!! Budget Bytes is great and should be a go to for anyone looking to expand their knowledge in the kitchen or actually learn a meal! And it’s so easy!! Download it!

I use this app every week to make my weekly grocery list. Every recipe is easy and tasty. My son is now using it at college too!

Been a fan of budget bytes for such a long time. My only issue with the app update is the measurements for certain ingredients. Using cups for items like canned tomatoes is kind of annoying!

These recipes are delicious! My favorite part is the types of ingredients. Inexpensive and common ingredients, makes for less waste. The app is easy to navigate. Easy to keep recipes in files

Budget bytes is my favorite cooking website! Can you please add back an option to see quantities in ounces for things like canned food? This is really helpful when shopping! Thanks

It makes planning and shopping so easy.

I love how intuitive this is with calculating budget for items. My only complaint is that I definitely don’t do my budget grocery shopping only at Walmart and Amazon fresh. Costco and other budget friendly grocery chains would be an awesome addition. As simple as a filter to select with retailers to shop. But the estimate at least let’s me shop where I want and see if Walmart has it cheaper.

I enjoy Budget Bytes, but was surprised when the website I am use to was gone. Your old point system kept me on track. I no longer have my cookbooks and I assume my reviews are also gone. Your new webpage looks great, but I miss the old one.

These recipes are banging. Great app

I’ve tried quite a few recipes and they’ve been really good. I like being able to find a variety of recipes in one place and they’re easy on my budget! Keep the recipes coming!

Initially I was bummed to download this app and see there was no nutritional info a few months back. I messaged the team to see what was up, because I love the budget bytes site and recipes. They were already on top of adding it to the site and said it should be on there by September. Currently in mid august it’s already up!! I’ve been using the site for years to plan and meal prep and this app makes it even easier. 10/10 recommend

Please add a feature so I can pick N recipes and generate a grocery list from them. Would be nice if it could export to Notes so I could check off ingredients I already have.

I am a “free app” gal, so I was wary of purchasing this app even though I have always loved Budget Bytes. I am so glad I bought it! There are so many features that I’ve never seen on an a cooking app before! I am in love!

I bought this app to make it easy to filter recipes and menu plan than searching on the website. What I love about the website is that it includes the nutritional info. But the app doesn't? Hopefully this will be fixed on future updates.

I love how easy this app is and that you can earn points! Pay one fee for the ease and availability of all recipes!

I love budget bytes and have been using it for years. Best recipes I have come by! I wish the app still included some of the items I like from the site.

Great line of recipes ease to make.

The app is worth it. For $3 you get a large selection that would be in a $20 cook book. My only complaint is the recipe I found online that drew me here isn’t on the app when I search for it.

But I’d love to see a grocery list. I’m putting this at 3 stars for now- mainly because when I emailed this, they told me to put it on here and I really hate having to leave reviews.

Thank you BudgetBytes for teaching me how to cook food that I love to eat. I appreciate that you include the cost per serving so I can keep track of expenses.

Love the website so I thought the app would be better without the ads and it is. Disappointing that there isn’t nutritional info in the app like online.

I had to relearn how to cook after raising a picky eater. I ya e enjoyed all of her recipes. They are easy and budget friendly and yet so tasty. I have recommended her to many friends

The app is good to use. I gave it three stars because it doesn

Long time fan of your Beth’s blog and love having this on the go when I’m shopping. Great app!

This app is super useful and helps out so much when planning meals for the week

Love this app and the recipes. You can make most the recipes into vegan or vegetarian if you want. She also has great meatless options.

I love the variety of meals and the step by step videos (including built in timer).

Been a fan of the blog for a long time and was super excited to find the app. Had some technical difficulties and they sorted it out quickly. Love that.
