My check-ins
Meals can work well or need another try. Both count as showing up. These notes and measurements are private to your account.
Shopping & cost
Enter what you already have in grams. Quantities cover the selected meals; pantry amounts are subtracted once. This worksheet does not change My Kitchen inventory.
Buy whole packages using the sizes shown. Different size at your store? Change usable ounces per package below. For drained foods, use the drained weight; for other packages, use net weight. Package sizes and yields are estimates—check the label.
Budget estimates, not store quotes. Edit $/lb to match your purchases. Totals price the exact ingredient amounts; package rounding, tax, delivery, drinks, and extra snacks are not included. Canned-bean amounts are drained edible weights; check the drained yield before buying.

Make this work for your household
These recipes are home cooking adaptations using the ingredients and methods shown.
- Chicken and salmon alternate in the main meal. The first meal is salsa chicken with squash, beans, and corn.
- Broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini, and yellow squash are the vegetable rotation. Corn and beans are measured carbohydrate foods. Rice and potatoes are not included in this version.
- Breakfast and lighter meals avoid eggs, mayonnaise, and tuna. Check ingredient labels for your household’s allergies; the preview includes dairy, fish, and walnuts.
The recipes are a meal framework, not a prescribed calorie or carbohydrate limit. Check ingredient labels for allergies. Adjust portions and additional food with your clinician or dietitian. Softer preparation, when offered, means easy to chew; it is not a swallowing-disorder diet. Use only textures the eater can manage.
Prepare a few days at a time
Follow each recipe’s storage and reheating instructions. A shorter recipe limit, such as 24 or 48 hours, takes priority over the general 3–4 day cooked-food guideline. Buy frozen portions or freeze raw chicken you will not cook within 1–2 days. Keep fish frozen until needed and thaw in the refrigerator according to the package; remove vacuum packaging when its instructions require it. Refrigerate cooked food promptly, within 2 hours, in shallow containers at 40°F or below. Freeze extra portions only when the recipe supports freezing. Reheat cooked leftovers to 165°F.
Cook chicken to 165°F and fish to 145°F in the thickest part. Use a food thermometer; cooking time changes with portion size. Doubling a recipe may require a second pan.
