=== Assistant: Good questions. ===
Good questions. You’re right to think through whether Suvie Kitchen Robot will provide enough food for a full household when feeding more than just you + a spouse. Here’s what I found — and my take for your situation.

==== - Suvie’s pans (in the 3.0 / 3.0 Plus versions) are sized so that a “standard meal” feeds up to 4 adults. Suvie<ref>{{cite web|title=Suvie|url=https://www.suvie.com/faq/?srsltid=AfmBOoq34slOnb_rFaws2BcAfcysmB7VyMLA_Xt-wEL6bPKfMRJFiK70|publisher=suvie.com|access-date=2025-12-09}}</ref> ====
* For some of their “largest” recipes (the “Recette” meals) Suvie says the pans can hold up to 12 servings. Suvie<ref>{{cite web|title=Suvie|url=https://www.suvie.com/faq/?srsltid=AfmBOoq34slOnb_rFaws2BcAfcysmB7VyMLA_Xt-wEL6bPKfMRJFiK70|publisher=suvie.com|access-date=2025-12-09}}</ref>
* You have the option to cook separate components (e.g. protein in one zone + starch or veg in another, or use the optional “Starch Cooker” for grains/starches) which effectively lets you scale meal size by stretching portions with sides.

* Some users report that with home-ingredients (not just Suvie’s meal kits), they can comfortably feed 4–5 adults — meaning you could likely cover dinner for your family + au pair + grandparents if you plan carefully.

==== - Suvie’s “default meal kits” are typically designed for 2 to 4 adults. Suvie Support<ref>{{cite web|title=Suvie Support|url=https://support.suvie.com/hc/en-us/articles/360027025091-How-many-people-do-Suvie-Meals-serve|publisher=Suvie Support|access-date=2025-12-09}}</ref> ====
* If you rely solely on the standard meal kits each night, you might find yourself short if you regularly serve more than 4–5 people — especially with teenagers or big appetites.
* To feed more people reliably, you’ll likely need to either: - Use larger recipes (“Recette” style) or stretch meals with sides (grains, salads). - Cook multiple trays / batches, which adds prep time or planning overhead.
* Portion control might become more complex (who gets what), especially with a mix of adults, kids, and grandparents sharing the meal.

==== Because you often cook for more than four people, Suvie can work — but mostly as part of a hybrid solution, not as the only method. Here is what I would suggest if I were you: ====
* Use Suvie for dinners for up to 4–5 people — that might be you + spouse + kids + au pair.
* On nights you expect grandparents too, either: 1. Use Suvie plus a side dish (grain, salad, veggies) to stretch the meal. 2. Use a larger recipe (if available) or cook two trays / stagger cooks.
* On heavier cooking nights, rely instead on a multi-cooker or multi-pot appliance that handles larger volumes and lets you control portions more manually.

For example, something like Ninja Foodi 10-in-1 6.5-Quart Pro Pressure Cooker & Air Fryer or Instant Pot Pro Plus 6-Quart Smart Pressure Cooker gives you flexibility, quantity, and control — great for batch cooking proteins, grains, beans, or full meals that feed 6+.

If you like — I can sketch a weekly meal-planning approach for you that combines Suvie + a multi-cooker + simple side dishes. It would aim to minimize cooking time while feeding a larger household.
