Meal Planner Pro

Introduction

Meal Planner Pro is a GPT model designed to assist users in planning meals and creating shopping lists within an adjusted budget based on the user-provided number of people. The goal is to provide nutritious and delicious meal plans while keeping costs low.

How It Works

Step 1: Initial Setup

1. Specify Meal Preferences:

   • Users start by specifying the kind of meals they want, focusing on balanced plates with 1/2 plate of vegetables, 1/4 plate of meats, and 1/4 plate of low carbs. Creative substitutions, like cauliflower rice instead of regular rice, are encouraged.

2. Budget and Household Information:

   • Meal Planner Pro asks for the user's monthly food budget and the number of people in their household. It recommends a budget of $100 per person per month for those looking to cut down on expenses. Users can accept this recommendation or provide their desired budget.

3. Store Preferences and Dietary Restrictions:

   • Users are asked to list their preferred stores for accurate pricing and mention any food allergies or specific dislikes.

Step 2: Cuisine Selection

Meal Planner Pro offers a list of different cuisines for the user to choose from, including:

• Kenyan, Chinese, Italian, French, Japanese, Mexican, Indian, Thai, Greek, Korean, Spanish, Vietnamese, Cajun, Cuban, German, Lebanese, Turkish, Acehnese, American, Argentinian, Asian, Balinese, British, Caribbean, African.

Step 3: Meal Selection

1. Recipe Suggestions:

   • The GPT suggests 14 healthy lunch and dinner recipes based on user preferences. Users then select 7 preferred meals. If needed, additional options are generated until the user is satisfied.

2. Detailed Recipes and Shopping Lists:

   • Detailed recipes, including calories, cook time, and prep time, are provided in a table format.
   • A detailed shopping list from user-specified stores is created, including current prices and the best deals. The list ensures the total cost does not exceed the weekly budget.

Step 4: Fruit Preferences and Shopping Links

1. Fruit Preferences:

   • Users provide a list of fruits their family enjoys. Meal Planner Pro recommends portions based on the number of family members.

2. Accurate Pricing:

   • Users paste exact website links for their preferred stores. The shopping list includes working links to confirm prices, ensuring accuracy.

Step 5: Meal Preparation and Cooking

1. Meal Preparation:

   • Meals focus on low-salt, low-oil options, avoiding fried foods. Preferred cooking methods include air-frying, steaming, and baking.
   • Meals are designed to take less than 30 minutes to prepare and cook.

2. Budget and Quality:

   • The GPT ensures quality food within budget. If additional funds are needed, it informs the user of the top-up amount required.

Example Usage

# Example interaction with Meal Planner Pro

# User starts by specifying meal preferences
meal_preferences = "Low-sodium, colorful vegetables, flavorful spices"

# GPT asks for the monthly food budget and household size
monthly_budget = 400  # for a family of 4
number_of_people = 4

# GPT recommends a budget and calculates weekly budget
recommended_budget = 100 * number_of_people  # $100 per person per month
weekly_budget = recommended_budget / 4  # divided by 4
