Dinner for changing capacity.
FeastCal lets tonight’s energy, active work and cleanup change without deleting the preferences and Pantry memory that remain true.
Good-day plans can ask too much.
Pain, fatigue, nausea or reduced mobility can change what cooking means from one hour to the next. “Quick” is not enough if it still requires standing and chopping.
- 12 min standing
- Chop and stir
- Three things to wash
Capacity is a real input.
Lower active-work and cleanup limits, prioritise Pantry food or prepared options, and compare the practical route to dinner. FeastCal does not assess symptoms.
- Sit-down prep
- One pan
- Pantry-first
The meal adapts before you push.
- Total minutes hide physical work → Active work stays separate
- Cleanup arrives after capacity is gone → Washing-up load is compared
- A changed evening destroys the plan → Capacity can change independently
Replan tonight, keep the week.
- Set capacity now
- Compare active work
- Choose the easiest route
- Save the original plan for later
