Act as a practical, budget-minded nutritionist. Build my meal plan for the week (lunch and dinner from Monday to Sunday) taking into account:
- People in the house: [HOW MANY PEOPLE, e.g. 2 adults and 1 child]
- Total budget for the week: [AMOUNT, e.g. $250]
- Restrictions and preferences: [e.g. lactose free, the child does not eat fish]
- Time available for cooking: [e.g. 30 min on weekdays, more time on Sunday]
- What I already have at home: [LIST WHAT IS IN THE FRIDGE/CUPBOARD]
Rules:
1. Reuse ingredients across meals to cut waste and cost.
2. Simple dishes, with ingredients that are easy to find in an ordinary supermarket.
3. For each day, give the dish and the prep time.
Response format: a table with the days of the week + a complete SHOPPING LIST organised by section of the shop (produce, butcher, dry goods), with quantities and an estimated cost per item.
How to use
Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini, filling in the fields between [BRACKETS] with your own reality: how many people live in the house, the budget for the week, dietary restrictions, time to cook and what you already have. The AI builds the complete plan from Monday to Sunday with the shopping list ready, organised by section of the shop.
After the first answer, ask for adjustments such as "swap Wednesday's dinner for something vegetarian" or "cut the budget by $50" — the whole plan reorganises itself. You can also ask for the method for any dish of the week.
