What Is the HOTRO Meal Planner?
The HOTRO Meal Planner is a recipe-driven shopping tool built for people who eat intentionally. Whether you follow a keto, paleo, carnivore, FODMAP, gluten-free, or dairy-free diet — or simply want to eat more whole, locally sourced protein — the Meal Planner helps you build a week's worth of meals and stock your kitchen in one seamless step.
- 60 recipes across breakfast, lunch, and dinner
- Filtered by dietary type: keto, paleo, carnivore, FODMAP, gluten-free, dairy-free, and more
- Each recipe card auto-adds the required HOTRO protein to your cart with one click
- Recipes are downloadable and printable from the HOTRO Recipe Blog

You can also browse by meal type — breakfast, lunch, or dinner — to plan specific parts of your day.
Step 3: Click Recipes to Add Proteins to Your Cart
Found a recipe you like? Click it. The protein required for that recipe is automatically added to your cart. Click more recipes and more proteins stack up — the Meal Planner keeps a running total so you can plan an entire week in one session.
Step 4: Review Your Cart and Check Out
When you're done planning, head to your cart. You'll see every protein you've selected, ready to order. All proteins are sourced from BC farms — grass-fed, free-range, and small-batch where possible.
Step 5: Download or Print Your Recipes
Every recipe in the Meal Planner is also available in the HOTRO Recipe Blog. Head there to download a PDF or print your weekly recipe cards to keep on the fridge.
Why Use a Real-Food Meal Planner?
Most meal planning tools give you recipes but leave you to figure out the shopping yourself. The HOTRO Meal Planner closes that gap — from recipe inspiration to proteins in your cart in under five minutes. It's designed for busy households that don't want to compromise on food quality.
- Save time: Plan a full week of meals in one sitting
- Reduce waste: Buy exactly what your recipes call for
- Eat better: Every recipe uses whole, minimally processed proteins
- Stay on plan: Dietary filters keep you aligned with keto, paleo, carnivore, or FODMAP goals
