We Launched iEatz Healthy v2: AI That Brings Your Pantry Back to Life.

Read time: ~7 minutes

We built v2 for one mission: turn the food you already own into real meals first, then only buy what’s missing. Less waste. Lower costs. More dinners actually cooked.

The Problem We’re Solving (and why most plans fail)

• Random carts = wasted food. You forget what’s already at home and rebuy it.

• Decision fatigue at 6–7pm. If dinner isn’t pre-decided, takeout wins.

• “All or nothing” recipes. Beautiful, expensive lists that don’t match your pantry.

• Zero reuse. Leftovers die in the fridge because there’s no plan for the next meal.

What’s New in iEatz Healthy v2

• Pantry-First AI Builder. Tell the app what you have; it generates meals that start with your inventory, not a blank slate.

• Gap-Fill Shopping. Only the missing items get added to your list—Instacart-ready or use in-store.

• Saveable Lists & Repeat Weeks. Keep what worked; rerun it later.

• Cleaner, faster flows. Fewer taps from idea → cart → plate.

How the AI Uses Your Pantry (3 steps)

1. Log what you’ve got. Quick-add staples (eggs, beans, rice, frozen veg, pasta, tuna, yogurt, tortillas, tomatoes).

2. Generate meals from that base. The AI maps protein + fiber + speed using your inventory first.

3. Fill only the gaps. It creates a short, shoppable list to complete the week—swap brands, upgrade, or delete.

You cook what you own, then you buy what you actually need.

The Pantry-to-Plate System (zero guesswork)

Pick one template. Repeat all week.

1) Bowl Template (10–15 min)

Base: rice or quinoaProtein: chicken, tuna, eggs, tofu, or beansFiber: frozen veg + greens + beans or lentilsSauce: salsa, tomato-garlic, yogurt-tahini, hot sauce

2) Wrap Template (8–10 min)

Wrap: whole-grain (≥3–5g fiber)Filling: beans or leftover protein + vegFinish: salsa/slaw/greens

3) Pasta Template (12–15 min)

Pasta: whole-wheat or legumeSauce: canned tomatoes simmered with garlic/onionBoost: white beans + spinach

Example: 10 Pantry Items → 7 Real Meals

You already have: rice, pasta, eggs, canned tuna, canned beans, canned tomatoes, frozen mixed veg, onion, garlic, tortillas.AI adds (gap-fill): yogurt, spinach, salsa, 1 protein of choice (chicken or tofu).

The week:

1. Tuna-Bean Toss (tuna + beans + onion + vinegar/oil) on tortillas

2. Protein Pasta (pasta + tomatoes + garlic + white beans + spinach)

3. Egg-Veg Skillet (eggs + frozen veg) with rice

4. Rice Bowl (rice + beans + salsa + fried egg)

5. Tomato-Garlic Quesadillas (tortillas + beans + quick tomato jam)

6. Leftover Pasta → Bake (pan + a little yogurt to cream, optional cheese)

7. Soup Hack (tomatoes + beans + rice + frozen veg + garlic/onion)

All seven are inventory-first. The add-ons are minimal and cheap.

7-Day Pantry Revival Plan

Mon – Yogurt bowl (yogurt + oats + berries if you’ve got them) → Tuna-Bean Toss → Protein PastaTue – Eggs + toast/torilla → Rice Bowl (beans + salsa + egg) → Sheet-pan chicken/tofu + frozen veg + riceWed – Yogurt bowl → Wrap (beans/chicken/greens) → Pasta leftovers + side greensThu – Oats or yogurt → Lentil/bean soup (from cans) → Quesadillas + tomato-garlic dipFri – Yogurt bowl → Big salad with beans + leftover protein → Rice Bowl repeatSat – PB toast + fruit → Any wrap → “Nacho” potatoes (or rice) + beans + salsaSun – Oats → Any bowl/wrap → Batch chili or lentils for next week

Snack rule: If it doesn’t include protein or fiber, it won’t calm a craving (yogurt + chia, apple + PB, edamame, popcorn).

Budget & Waste Controls (baked into v2)

• Price-banded swaps keep your cart on target.

• Inventory reminders nudge you to cook what’s already there.

• Leftover chaining (tonight → tomorrow) prevents the “science project” fridge.

FAQ

Do I have to log every single item?No. Start with 8–12 staples. The AI still builds smart meals and asks about swaps on the fly.

What if I’m dairy-free / gluten-free?Pick the tag; v2 biases toward matching bases and sauces and keeps price-bands sensible.

Can I use this if I hate cooking?Yes. Use the Wrap and Bowl templates and repeat. Most meals are 10–15 minutes.
