The Dinner Planner: How Veloop AI understands your family

Figuring out what to have for dinner every day can be one of the biggest challenges, especially when family members have different allergies and preferences. With Veloop's AI Dinner Planner, this task is solved magically—and completely automatically.

Tailored for your family

Our dinner planner is built to understand who you are. Here is how it adapts:

1. Family Size and Portion Calculation

Forget manual conversions of recipes. In the app, you define how many people are in the household. Our AI automatically scales the ingredients in any dinner suggestion so you get exactly the right amount of food—reducing food waste and saving money.

2. Dietary Flags and Allergy Control

Through the "Dietary Flags" feature on your profile page, you can register the family's needs:

  • Allergies: Lactose intolerance, gluten allergy, nuts, etc.
  • Preferences: Vegetarian, vegan, pescetarian.

The dinner planner will never suggest dishes that violate these choices. The recipes generated are guaranteed safe for the table.

3. Inventory Awareness: What do you already have?

By analyzing your shopping habits, Veloop understands what you typically have in your cupboards. When the app suggests Taco, it might know you already have salt, pepper, and cumin, and will only add the fresh ingredients to your shopping list.

Straight from suggestion to shopping list

Everything happens seamlessly. You approve a dinner suggestion, and voilà—all missing ingredients are sorted in the correct category (e.g., Fruit & Veg, Dairy, Meat) on the family's shared shopping list, ready for the trip to the grocery store.

Ingredients

  • Ground lamb500 g
  • Garlic cloves3 cloves
  • Ras el hanout2 tbsp
  • Fresh mint1 bunch
  • Olive oil2 tbsp
  • Quinoa1.5 cups
  • Vegetable broth3 cups
  • Pomegranate seeds1 cup
  • Feta cheese100 g
  • Greek yogurt1 cup

Instructions

1

Rinse the quinoa thoroughly under cold water. In a medium pot, bring the vegetable broth to a boil, add the quinoa, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until the liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork.

2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground lamb, minced garlic, Ras el hanout, half of the chopped fresh mint, and a generous pinch of salt and black pepper. Mix thoroughly using your hands.

3

Form the lamb mixture into roughly 16 evenly sized meatballs. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the meatballs and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until nicely browned on all sides and cooked through.

4

Fold the pomegranate seeds, crumbled feta cheese, and the remaining fresh mint into the warm cooked quinoa. Toss gently to combine the ingredients without mashing the feta.

5

Divide the vibrant pomegranate quinoa among four plates. Top with the warm, spiced lamb meatballs and serve immediately with a generous dollop of Greek yogurt on the side.
