ChatGPT and Claude open with your prompt already typed in. Gemini can't be filled in from a link, so its button copies your prompt: paste it into the new chat.
The prompt that gets copied
Plan [MEALS NEEDED, e.g. 7 dinners and 5 lunches] for [YOUR HOUSEHOLD, e.g. 2 adults and a toddler] on a total grocery budget of [WEEKLY BUDGET, e.g. $100]. We already have: [FOOD ON HAND, e.g. rice, frozen peas, 6 eggs]. Diet needs: [DIET NEEDS, e.g. no pork, one vegetarian]. We shop at [STORE TYPE, e.g. a discount supermarket]. Reuse ingredients across meals so nothing goes to waste, and use what we already have first. Give me the meal plan as a table, short recipes, and a shopping list grouped by aisle with estimated prices and a total. If the total goes over budget, swap meals until it fits. Mark which meals make good leftovers.
Give your budget, household size, what's already in the kitchen and any diet needs, and get a week of meals with recipes and a shopping list that stays under the number.
Step by step
- Check your fridge and pantry and list what needs using up.
- Paste the prompt into ChatGPT, Gemini or Claude.
- Ask it to swap any meal your family won't eat.
- Check prices in your store's app, since AI price guesses can be off.
What you'll get
A week of meals with short recipes and an aisle-sorted shopping list with estimated prices that stays under budget.
AI price estimates aren't live prices. Check your store's app or website.
