About this template

A first onboarding email for meal planning apps, nutrition coaches and recipe subscriptions. New users want to know how fast they will get a plan they can cook, so the email shows the food first and the steps second.

A bright photo of prepared meals sits under a clear headline and one button that opens the planner. Three green line icons explain what every plan includes. A heading introduces three numbered steps, each with a small square photo and one or two lines: share your tastes, pick your dinners, shop from one list. A dark green split panel then offers help from the nutrition team for anyone with a special diet, and the footer closes the email.

Fresh greens, white space and a round sans serif keep it friendly and practical.

Swap the photos for your own dishes and point each step to the right screen in your app.
