Yep… we did it 😂 We asked ChatGPT to create a full meal plan using the ingredients from @pinosprahranmarket $55 fruit and veggie box from Prahran Market 👀 And honestly, the results were kinda impressive. ✔️ Family dinner ideas ✔️ Toddler snacks ✔️ Extra proteins to buy ✔️ Grocery list ✔️ AND we even made it write the instructions for every meal too 😬 Would you ever do this? Or have you already tried using ChatGPT for meal planning? We’d love to know! Extra bonus: @prahranmarket also has ride on vintage trucks the kids can play on, which is honestly the best! #melbourne #prahran #prahranmarket #mealprep #market

I’m sure you’ve seen us posting @pinosprahranmarket lately and we are obsessed 😂🍎 It’s honestly cut our grocery shopping down so much. We basically just grab protein and a few little extras if we’re making something specific, but otherwise we’ve been loving making meals from whatever’s in the box. We’ve added some meal ideas on the last slide, if you have any suggestions let us know below 💛 We’ve previously grabbed their $35 box (available weekends) and thought THAT was huge, so we thought we’d show you what’s inside the $55 family fruit + veg box available Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays 👏💛 📍Pinos, Prahran Market Enjoy friends 💛 #melbourne #market #weekend #prahran #prahranmarket
