So what are we eating today?

ChopTime already knows. Your meals, planned around the food your household actually eats, with every meal opening into a proper recipe and every recipe becoming a basket at your door.

Six o'clock
somewhere in Accra

  1. You leave work with nothing decided.

  2. You open the fridge for the third time and close it again.

  3. Somebody suggests rice. Somebody always suggests rice.

  4. You order something nobody really wanted, and it costs more than it should have.

Then tomorrow comes and the whole thing starts again. It isn't that you can't cook. It's that deciding, every single evening, for a whole household, is a job nobody gave you.

The apps don't help. The global meal planners have never heard of waakye; ask one to plan your week and it hands you a stranger's diet. Delivery fixes tonight and leaves you exactly where you started.

ChopTime was built here, for here.

Paid with Mobile Money, packed, and brought to you. Then Wednesday is waiting, and the plan has already moved on without you lifting a finger.

Plan. Cook. Shop. Again.

Meal planning

Your meals, in your own food.

Answer a short taste quiz, no login, and ChopTime builds a plan from dishes your household already eats. Jollof, waakye, kontomire and ampesi, tuo zaafi, red red.

  1. Your taste quiz

    Five questions. What you eat, what you want more of, and how long you actually have.

  2. Your constraints

    Budget, time, household size, dietary needs, fasting. Settings, not suggestions.

  3. The model arranges

    It fills every slot across your horizon, and it will not hand you jollof four days running.

  4. It sharpens

    Every swap and every meal you cook goes back in.

Your planning horizon

Plans are not locked to seven days.

Kitchens are not run in seven day blocks, so the horizon is yours to set. Plan from today out to wherever you need, and the plan keeps moving as you reach the end of it.

A week, a fortnight, a month, or the four days until payday. Set the horizon when you build the plan, and change it whenever your month does.

It gets to know your kitchen.

The quiz is the start, not the whole story. Every swap you make and every meal you cook sharpens what comes next, so the plan you get in month three is not the plan you got on day one.

  • Weekly budgetSet by you
  • Dietary needsNo pork, no shellfish

The recipe library

Every meal opens into a proper recipe.

Not a translated approximation. Ghanaian ingredients, Ghanaian measures, and the honest timings: a bundle of kontomire, three cups of fermented corn dough, thirty minutes turning banku over the fire.

Banku with a whole grilled tilapia and kpakpo shito

I used to stand in the kitchen at seven o'clock with no idea. Now Tuesday was decided on Sunday, and the fish is already in the fridge.

What sold me was the market list. I stopped buying a whole bundle of kontomire for one meal and throwing half of it away on Friday.

My daughter is learning to cook tuo zaafi from it. The measures are the ones my mother used, not cups of something.
