How do you cook a full meal for eighteen people that has to be ready after a service, with no chametz in the kitchen and half the usual ingredients unavailable? The Passover Seder Menu Planner works within those constraints, planning the meal that follows the seder and the order of work that gets it there.
Short answer: Passover Seder Menu Planner is a free AI tool on EizTools that builds a seder meal plan with recipes, servings and prep timings, working around Passover restrictions and the fact that the meal is served part way through a long evening.
What is Passover Seder Menu Planner?
It is a menu workspace for one of the most constrained meals of the year. You describe the table, the customs your household follows and what you can and cannot use. It returns the courses, the quantities and a schedule that accounts for the seder itself running before the food arrives.
The Seder Plate And The Meal Around It
The seder plate is symbolic and mostly fixed. The meal that follows is where the planning happens, and it has to arrive at a point in the evening you cannot fully control.
- Prepare the seder plate items separately, since they are set by custom rather than by menu.
- Plan a first course that can sit ready, because the timing of the service varies.
- Choose a main that holds without drying, which usually means braised rather than roasted.
- Keep sides simple. The kitchen has been busy for two days already by this point.
- Finish with a dessert made entirely in advance, since nobody is baking at that hour.
Important This tool is not a halachic authority. Kashrut for Passover, including kitniyot, certification and kitchen preparation, differs between communities and families. Follow your own rabbi and your household's practice over anything generated here.
How Does Passover Seder Menu Planner Work?
Type the head count, your tradition and your restrictions into the prompt box, including anything your family always serves. Choose the engine you want on this run, open the advanced options accordion and set the four below. Press Generate and the plan appears in the output card, where the pills show how long the result runs.
Copy it, export it as TXT, Word or HTML, or listen to the running order while you cook. Each version stays in the activity history panel, which helps when you are deciding between a longer menu and a simpler one.
Servings And Prep Time
| Option | What it controls | Start with |
|---|---|---|
| Servings | Quantities across the menu, 1 to 12 | 12, with the real number written into the prompt |
| Prep Time | Quick (<15m) through Long (60m+) | Long (60m+) for the main, Quick for sides |
| Difficulty | Easy, Intermediate or Advanced | Easy, since most of the work happens days earlier |
| Cuisine | Nine settings including Middle Eastern and Mediterranean | Whichever matches your family's tradition |
Include Substitutions matters here more than on most tools, because Passover cooking is substitution by definition. Include Storage Tips tells you what can be cooked on the Sunday and reheated, and Include Time Estimates lets you build the schedule backwards from the point the meal is served.
Timed around the service
The meal is planned to sit ready rather than to be finished at a fixed hour, which is the real constraint.
Substitutions written in
Every dish comes with alternatives, since what is permitted and available varies by household and by year.
Scaled for a long table
Quantities for a seder are larger than for an ordinary dinner, and guests often arrive late and eat anyway.
EizTools carries a growing library of free tools, each with its own options and prompt engineering, no login, and a model family chosen on every generation. Downloads and copying work the same way on every tool here. If your seder brings together several culinary traditions in one evening, the Global Cuisine Menu Planner handles that mix.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does it know what is kosher for Passover?
It works from the rules you describe. Tell Passover Seder Menu Planner whether your household eats kitniyot and what certification you require, and always verify against your own practice.
Can it plan Ashkenazi and Sephardi dishes together?
Yes, and many tables need exactly that. Name both traditions in the prompt and the menu carries dishes from each, rather than defaulting to one and treating the other as a variation.
How far ahead should I cook?
Two to three days for anything that keeps, with the final assembly on the day. Switch on Include Storage Tips and each dish is marked with how far ahead it can safely be made.
Will it handle guests with allergies?
It will. Name them in the prompt alongside the Passover restrictions, and the menu is built around both. That combination is genuinely hard by hand, and it is where the tool saves the most time.
A seder is a long evening with a meal wedged into the middle of it. Cooking ahead, choosing dishes that hold, and writing the order down is what lets the person who cooked actually sit at the table.
Describe your table and your household's practice, then get the make ahead dishes done early in the week.
