Green Leaf CookingSee a three-dinner family meal plan with free recipes, one combined shopping list, ingredient leftovers and ideas for using them in your next plan.
All three dinners are from the free recipe collection. Quantities are for the whole household, with no ingredients already in stock. Set your own household and supermarket in the app to get your own amounts.
A creamy beef pasta, sticky halloumi tacos and teriyaki chicken with rice and greens. Three different dinners, each ready in around 30–35 minutes.
with Sweet Pepper and Creamy Tomato Sauce
View this recipe
with Sweet Peppers and Red Onion
View this recipeThe original 250 g halloumi amount becomes one complete 225 g pack in this example, using the app’s pack-fit calculation.
The list adds the ingredients together and shows the packs to buy, the amount used and what remains. For example, the red peppers for the pasta and tacos become one entry for two peppers.
Natural fillet weights vary. This uses five whole fillets; weigh the real remainder.
Bulbs vary in size; the recipes use two cloves.
Bunch counts vary; the recipe uses two spring onions.
The app fits the original 250 g amount to one 225 g pack for this plan.
Pack choices use the Sainsbury’s profile recorded in Green Leaf Cooking (profile audit: 1 October 2026). Availability and pack sizes can change. Counted produce, garlic bulbs and herb bunches vary in size; the amounts here are a worked example rather than a live supermarket basket.
Once the three meals are cooked, these are four of the ingredients left from the shop. The full list above shows every planned remainder.
Stock tracking is a Premium feature. The free plan gives you three dinners and their combined shopping list; Premium records suitable purchases and cooking use so remaining ingredients can help with future plans.
These are unused ingredients, not leftovers from cooked meals. Follow each pack’s dates and storage instructions. Fresh food and opened jars may need using sooner; carry forward only what is still suitable.
Here are three different free recipes for a later plan. Their highlighted ingredients fit within the amounts left above. You’ll still need the other ingredients in each recipe.
