Meal Planner was designed to assist cooks in the preparation and cooking of multiple meal items. The Meal Planner divides the preparation work between cooks and sets start and end times for both preparation and cooking steps to verify that all meals complete at the same time.

Some features of the Meal Planner:
1) Ability to create meal item entries with preparation and cooking tasks.
2) Ability to specify how many cooks will be creating the meal.
3) Split the meal preparation steps between the cooks.
4) Determine which meal items should be prepared first to verify that all dishes complete at the same time and in the least amount of time possible.
5) The ability to pause, resume, and complete a preparation task.
6) When the Meal Planner goes in the background, notification will appear when preparation and cooking tasks are about to being, and when they are starting.
