Groceries bought, dinner undecided? Start with three checked ingredients

by•

I'm Shohruh, the independent iOS/mobile developer behind Clove AI: Smart Kitchen Agent.

For the groceries-bought-but-dinner-undecided moment, here's a small starting point:

1. Check three ingredients you actually have. A saved list can be out of date.

2. Note the amounts and whether each ingredient is raw or already prepared.

3. Ask for one meal idea around those ingredients, then review the suggestion and any extras needed.

4. Put the missing items on a grocery list before deciding whether another shop is necessary.

You can do the shelf check with paper. In Clove, you can record the ingredients, ask Chef for a meal idea and keep a grocery list in the same app. AI suggestions still need your judgement; Clove doesn't assess whether food is safe to eat.

It's available for iPhone and iPad in English, free to download with daily AI limits and optional Pro subscriptions:

The Clove Product Hunt relaunch is scheduled for November 16. When groceries are already home, which part usually slows dinner down: choosing a meal or working out what's missing?

Checking three things you actually have instead of trusting a saved list is a good rule, saved lists go stale fast. I also like that you wrote "AI suggestions still need your judgement" right in the post. Good luck with the relaunch on the 16th!

 Thanks, Hisashi! A saved list is a starting point; the kitchen still needs a quick check. I want people to review the suggestion and any extras before deciding what to cook. Appreciate the encouragement for the 16th.
