How does the Dinner Spinner work?

Two ways to decide. Spin the wheel for an instant random pick, or answer four quick questions and our AI picks one dinner that truly fits - with a recipe to cook or a way to order it now.

Is this a random dinner generator?

Yes! The wheel is a classic random dinner generator - spin and get an answer in one tap. The AI mode is the smarter version that weighs your craving, cuisine, diet, and protein, then returns one top pick plus backup ideas.
