Nut-Free Meal Planner for Peanut and Tree-Nut Avoidance

Plan weekly meals around peanut, tree-nut or combined avoidance preferences and create a matching shopping list — then review each recipe and label before serving.

Your selections can be reviewed and changed from your Mealiv account.

Important allergen information: Mealiv is a meal-planning aid and cannot guarantee that a meal or product is free from nuts. Always review recipes, ingredient labels and “may contain” or cross-contamination warnings, particularly for a serious or anaphylactic nut allergy. Read how Mealiv handles allergen information.

How It Works



Nut-Free Planning for Busy Families

When a child or family member has a nut allergy, mealtimes carry real weight — and nuts turn up where you least expect them, from the praline in a dessert to the satay in a stir-fry or the nuts blended into a spread. Planning a whole week around them by memory is stressful.

Mealiv takes that pressure off. With nuts and peanuts set as allergens, your weekly plan is built from meals that already exclude them, so every option on your plan is one you can review before serving — rather than vet each recipe from scratch.


Peanuts and Tree Nuts, Handled Separately

Peanuts and tree nuts are different allergens, and Mealiv treats them that way — add either or both. Each expands to the everyday foods that carry it, so meals are filtered on their real ingredients:

This runs across both the meals Mealiv picks from your recipe library and any new meals it generates. It is designed to support your own label checking — not replace it — so always confirm ingredients before serving.


A Nut-Free Grocery List, Built In

When your plan is ready, Mealiv turns it into a shopping list from the same nut-free meals — so the weekly shop already matches your plan and there is one less thing to double-check at the shelf.


How to Use Mealiv for Nut-Free Planning

Mealiv uses the allergens and foods saved to your account when selecting and generating meals. It can identify many common nut ingredients and related terms, but no automated meal planner can guarantee that a recipe or packaged product is free from nuts.

Peanuts are legumes and are a separate allergen from tree nuts, so select whichever apply to you. Mealiv does not assess cross-contamination, and products labelled “may contain nuts” vary between manufacturers. Always review the full recipe, check ingredient labels and look for “may contain” warnings. For a serious or anaphylactic nut allergy, follow the advice of your doctor or allergy specialist.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Set nuts and peanuts as allergens in your account and Mealiv plans your week with meals that leave them out, rather than just flagging them. This applies to meals chosen from your library and any meals it generates.
Yes. Peanuts and tree nuts are separate allergens in Mealiv, so you can add either or both. Tree nuts expand to almond, cashew, walnut, hazelnut, pistachio and more, and peanuts cover groundnut and satay.

Mealiv helps you plan nut-free meals but is a planning aid, not a medical or food-safety guarantee, and it cannot assess cross-contamination. For a serious or anaphylactic nut allergy, always read product labels, check for “may contain nuts” warnings, and follow your doctor's advice.
Yes. Mealiv turns your nut-free plan into a shopping list from the same meals, so your list reflects the nut-free week you planned.
