Ways to start
A few requests this Agent can handle.
I’m hiking the Wonderland Trail for four days with a 40-liter pack and one canister stove. Plan meals for about 2,800 calories a day.
I’m taking three friends out for two nights. One is vegetarian, and we have a pot that holds 1.5 liters. Make a menu and shopping list.
I have instant rice, tuna packets, olive oil, and a small stove for a five-day trip in the Sierra. Suggest dinners and estimate how much fuel to pack.
