How it works

Pantry-first planning, in four steps

No idealised recipe assuming an empty kitchen — Munch Hutch starts from what you already have and builds outward.

1. Add what's already in your kitchen

Scan shelves, bags, and packaging with your camera, scan a barcode, or just type items in. Munch Hutch keeps a running list with quantities, categories, and expiry dates.

The pantry in the Munch Hutch app: a scan button, search and filters, and items with quantities and where each is kept

2. Get meal suggestions built around it

Recommendations are scored against what you already have, your household's diet and dislikes, and how quickly things need using up — not a generic recipe feed.

3. Shop only for what's missing

Put recipes on the days you'll cook them and the shopping list is built from exactly those meals — only the gaps, not a full grocery run, with a price on every line.

4. Share it with your household

Invite the people you live with. Everyone sees the same pantry, plan, and shopping list, with roles so you can control who can edit versus just view.
