How long do these keep in the fridge?

As a rule of thumb, 3 to 4 days in a sealed container. If you'll need them for longer, freeze them in single portions.

Is it free?

Yes. Building your meal plan and shopping list is free and you don't need a card. You'll need a free account (Google or email) to generate a plan, which also keeps your weeks saved.

Can I add these recipes to my weekly meal plan?

Yes. They're part of the same recipe collection CestaChef uses in the UK to build your plan: the app chooses from them based on your supermarket, your budget, your allergies and the appliances you have.
