Posting this because I was skeptical when I first read about AI meal planning on here. But my wife and I tried it for a month and the results were insane.
We went from spending ~$1200/month on groceries (family of 4, lots of takeout, lots of waste) to about $800 with less food waste and actually healthier meals.
Happy to share our exact prompts if anyone wants them.
Yes please share the prompts! We’re spending way too much on groceries and I know half of it goes in the trash. Family of 5 here so even small savings add up.
We did something similar but focused on batch cooking. AI generates recipes where you do one big cook on Sunday and have lunches for the whole week.
The ingredient overlap thing is so smart. Last week our AI plan used chicken in three different recipes — a stir fry, a soup, and tacos. One big package instead of three small ones.
