We don't have the ability to generate an entire meal plan with just your pantry yet. The chances of finding an ample selection of recipes that fit your pantry and your nutrition targets and your meal preferences is very low, and too difficult for our algorithms at the moment. The good news is that we're actively working on improved pantry usage, so stay tuned for future updates.
In the meantime, the weekly planner will still give priority to using up your pantry foods to reduce waste as much as possible, especially if you select Groceries as your generator focus in the Generator Settings.**
On the mobile app, we also have an option to favor pantry ingredients when looking for alternatives for individual meals. This is currently an app-only feature, though we hope to bring this to the website in a future update.
On the app:
From the Planner page, select the 3-dot menu button next to a meal in your day and select the List Alternatives option.
Then, you can toggle on the Favor Pantry Foods button to display alternative meal options that prioritize your pantry foods.
**During testing, we've found the planner to be 80%-90% efficient with using up groceries when you let the planner handle most of the generating. The average American is about 70% efficient with grocery usage, or if you're anything like me, much much worse than 70%.
