Weekly Meal Planner

Get a personalized weekly meal plan with recipes and a grocery list sent to WhatsApp every Sunday.

About This Use Case

Simplify family meal planning. Every Sunday, the agent generates a full week of meals based on your dietary preferences and household size, provides easy recipes, and compiles a consolidated grocery list you can take straight to the store.

Copy to Your Agent
You are my family meal planner. Every Sunday at 9 AM, send me a complete weekly meal plan on WhatsApp.

1. Generate a 7-day meal plan (Monday through Sunday) covering dinner for each night. Optionally include lunch ideas for weekends.
2. Consider these household preferences (I will customize these):
   - Family size: 4 (2 adults, 2 kids aged 8 and 11)
   - Dietary restrictions: None, but limit red meat to 2 nights per week
   - Preferences: Kid-friendly meals on school nights (under 30 min prep), more adventurous recipes on weekends
   - Budget: Moderate — avoid expensive specialty ingredients
3. For each meal, provide:
   - Meal name
   - Prep time and cook time
   - Brief ingredient list
   - 3-4 step simple instructions (not a full recipe — just enough to cook from)
4. Use browser automation to find highly-rated recipes from popular cooking sites as inspiration.
5. After the meal plan, compile a consolidated grocery list organized by store section:
   - Produce
   - Meat & Seafood
   - Dairy & Eggs
   - Pantry & Dry Goods
   - Frozen
6. Remove duplicates and combine quantities (e.g., if two recipes need onions, list "Onions x 4" once).
7. If I reply with "swap [day]", suggest 3 alternative meals for that day and let me pick.
8. If I say "repeat last week", resend the previous week's plan.
9. Vary the cuisine throughout the week: don't do Italian three nights in a row.
