# TuMenuSemanal.com — AI-powered weekly meal planning hub

> An open hub of free AI-powered tools that generate personalized weekly menus, batch cooking plans, family meal calendars, and pathology-adapted diets in seconds. Built without frameworks for extreme performance, no signup required.

## Project summary
TuMenuSemanal is a directory of zero-friction micro-tools that automate weekly meal planning and grocery list generation based on user constraints (budget, time available, cooking skill, family size, medical condition, dietary goals). All generators use Google Gemini Flash via OpenRouter; outputs are deterministic enough for repeated use and personalised enough to feel hand-tailored. Live in 8 languages: Spanish (default), English, French, German, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese.

## Available generator tools (Spanish niches)
- /solteros/ : Batch cooking and zero-waste meal plans for single people. Optimises for minimum cooking sessions per week and shopping efficiency.
- /familias/ : Family meal plans with hidden-vegetable techniques, kid-friendly recipes, and shared family budgets (4-6 people).
- /estudiantes/ : Microwave-only and dorm-room recipes with extreme low-budget mode ("modo supervivencia"). Designed for shared kitchens.
- /deportistas/ : Macro-calculated meal plans (bulking, cutting, recomposition) with prioritised protein sources and timing strategies.
- /mascotas/ : BARF and cooked diets for dogs and cats based on weight percentages and life stage. Vet-reviewed templates.
- /patologias/ : Clinically strict menus for IBS (FODMAP), diabetes (low GI), hypertension (DASH), celiac disease, hypothyroidism and other conditions.
- /oficinistas/ : Tupperware recipes engineered to reheat well at work. Anti-modorra protocol prevents post-lunch energy crash.
- /aprovechamiento/ : Zero-waste tool that generates recipes using strictly the produce that's about to spoil in the user's fridge.
