+The sensor that gets the name of the meal can be achieved using the following REST sensor in Home Assistant
+```yaml
+sensor:
+  - platform: rest
+    resource: 'http://localhost:9000/api/meal-plans/today'
+    method: GET
+    name: Mealie todays meal 
+    headers:
+      Authorization: Bearer MySuperSecretBearerCode
+    value_template: "{{ value_json.name }}"
