Create my grocery listMonday's chicken comes back as quesadillas on Saturday, the cream goes into both the gratin and the blanquette. Nothing is bought for just one dish.
Servings are sized for two adults: no going hungry, and no container forgotten in the fridge for three days.
15 to 25 minutes for weekday lunches. The longer recipes go to dinners and the weekend.
A homemade pizza on Saturday night: the week works because it doesn't feel like punishment.
Monday night, make twice the basmati rice: on Friday, the blanquette is ready in 20 minutes.
Spin dry all your greens on Sunday and keep them in a dish towel in the fridge: they last five days.
Chili always makes a bit more than planned. One container in the freezer is one lazy night saved.
Pick your tastes, your constraints and your budget. Popotam builds your meal plan and your grocery list, either generating it itself or with your own ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini account.
The same format for two, adapted to whatever you're dealing with right now.
All our menus follow the same format: 14 meals, a grocery list, an estimated budget.
A week for four at the lowest price.
Everything in 25 minutes max.
30 g minimum per meal, from a mix of sources.
Family of four, dishes to share.
Every ingredient used up within the week.
Veggies twice a day, no deprivation.
The trap for two is package size: a roast or a bunch of cilantro is always more than one meal needs. The fix is to plan two dishes that share the same ingredient in the same week, and to place the second one before the food goes bad. That's exactly what this menu does.
First pick a format (number of people, budget, time you have), then lay out 14 meals, lunch and dinner over 7 days, reusing the same ingredients from one dish to the next. Finish with the grocery list grouped by aisle: that's what makes sure the week holds up.
Every menu on this site comes with one, already sorted by aisle. With Popotam, you can also generate your own from your own meals: you check it off as you go and it shows the budget you have left.
Yes, and with no subscription. Two ways to generate, your pick: Popotam handles it itself, which costs it less than a cent, or you use your own ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini account, which costs it nothing. No ads, no selling your data, no commission on your groceries.
Nope. No sign-up, no email, no ads. Your meal plan lives online, behind a secret link only you know.
