## What is Cooking Sudoku?

Nine ingredients. Dozens of dinners. One grocery run.

Cooking Sudoku turns a small shopping list into a whole week of meals. Pick three vegetable pairs, three carbs, and three proteins, and the app arranges them into a 3x3 grid where every row and every column is a complete, different dinner. Nine ingredients become 27 meals.

HOW IT WORKS
• Answer a quick setup: diet, allergies, cuisines, servings, effort.
• Get a suggested grid, then swap any ingredient you like.
• Tap one tile per color to build a meal and open its recipe.
• Favorite the ones you want, and your grocery list writes itself.

EVERY MEAL HAS A REAL RECIPE
Illustrated and step by step, with timers on the steps that need watching, quantities that scale to your servings, and estimated nutrition. Combinations without a written recipe are adapted on your device from the closest one.

PLAN THE WEEK, THEN COOK IT
• Choose the meals you actually want this week.
• A prep guide batches the shared work: one chop pass, one pot of rice, proteins seared ahead.
• A checkable grocery list grouped by aisle, ready to print or save as a PDF.

HOLIDAY TABLES
Thanksgiving, taco night, and game day arrive as ready-made grids, with allergy swaps already applied.

WHY YOU'LL LIKE IT
• Less food waste. Everything you buy is used across several meals.
• Real variety without more shopping.
• Allergies and diets are respected everywhere, always.

Private by design: everything stays on your device. No account, no tracking, no ads.
