Cooking for two is tricky. Many recipes make too much. ChatGPT can help you plan the right amount.

ChatGPT is a free helper you type to. You tell it you are feeding two. Then it plans meals and a grocery list to match.

Less waste means less money spent. You can ask it to use up leftovers too.

Try this
  1. Open ChatGPT and start a new message.
  2. Say you are planning meals for two people.
  3. Tell it how many days you want to cover.
  4. Ask for meal ideas and a grocery list.
  5. Adjust amounts to match how much you eat.
