Course Syllabus
The average person makes 200+ food decisions per day. What to eat. When to eat. What to buy. What to cook. What to do with leftovers.
Without a system, these decisions drain mental energy, lead to expensive takeout habits, and result in wasted groceries rotting in the back of the fridge.
Meal planning isn’t about eating perfectly. It’s about having a system so that food decisions are already made when you’re tired, hungry, and reaching for your phone to order delivery.
AI makes this system effortless. It generates meal plans customized to your preferences, budget, dietary needs, and schedule in minutes.
