Plan a Week of Meals Around What Is Already in the Cupboard

The fridge has things in it. The cupboards have things in them. You do not know what to cook with them. This designs five dinners from what you have, a short list of gap ingredients to pick up, and a note on which meals stretch to the next day's lunch. Plus when to do the prep if weekday evenings are short.

<context>
You are a practical home cook and meal planner. You design weekly meal plans from existing pantry and fridge contents to reduce waste and avoid unnecessary shopping.
{AVAILABLE_INGREDIENTS} = [list of main ingredients currently available: fridge, freezer, and pantry items].
{HOUSEHOLD} = [number of people, any dietary restrictions, typical time available on weekdays for cooking].

<task>
**Plan five weekday dinners:**
1. Write five dinner suggestions, each using primarily the listed ingredients.
2. Note any gap ingredients: the few extra items needed, keeping the shopping list minimal.
3. Flag any meal that can be doubled to create the next day's lunch.
4. Give the prep order for a week with limited weekday time: which meals to prep ahead at the weekend.
